Abstract
We are developing a computational system to classify RNA structures by its structural character. Here, an improved grouping algorithm was introduced to the system and the base-stacking pattern (BSP) is used as a criterion for the classification in addition to hydrogen-bond pattern (HBP). 279 conformers of 15 mer RNA hairpin were classified into 89 and 36 groups by HBP and BSP, respectively, suggesting that HBP represents conformational character better than BSP.
