X Abstract

MOTIVATION: RNA secondary structure analysis often requires searching for potential helices in large sequence data. RESULTS: We present a utility program GUUGle that efficiently locates potential helical regions under RNA base pairing rules, which include Watson-Crick as well as G-U pairs. It accepts a positive and a negative set of sequences, and determines all exact matches under RNA rules between positive and negative sequences that exceed a specified length. The GUUGle algorithm can also be adapted to use a precomputed suffix array of the positive sequence set. We show how this program can be effectively used as a filter preceding a more computationally expensive task such as miRNA target prediction. AVAILABILITY: GUUGle is available via the Bielefeld Bioinformatics Server at http://bibiserv.techfak.uni-bielefeld.de/guugle

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
