RNA 2D structure
« on: January 23, 2010, 11:03:12 pm »
Hi,
I have generated 5000 3D structures of RNA as pdb files. I would like to get the secondary structure of all these 3D structures. Is it possible with 3DNA software? If so please let me know how to use that. I have downloaded the 3DNA software.

Thanks,
Srihari

From a 3D RNA structure in PDB format, find_pair in 3DNA can identify all the double helical regions. Maybe that would serve as a starting point?

You may also find my blog post titled "Does 3DNA work for RNA?" relevant.
