Abstract: "The abbreviated name,
'mfold web server', describes a number of closely related software
applications
available on the World Wide Web (WWW) for the prediction of the secondary
structure of single stranded nucleic
acids. The objective of this web server is to provide easy access to RNA and
DNA folding and hybridization software
to the scientific community at large. By making use of universally available
web GUIs (Graphical User Interfaces), the server circumvents the problem of
portability of this software. Detailed output, in the form of structure plots
with or without reliability information, single strand frequency plots and
'energy dot plots', are available for the folding of single sequences. A
variety of 'bulk' servers give less information, but in a shorter time and for
up to hundreds of sequences at once. The portal for the mfold web server is http://www.bioinfo.rpi.edu/applications/mfold.
This URL will be referred to as 'MFOLDROOT'."
