In addition to energetically optimal structures, RNAs can fold into near energy suboptimal conformations that may be populated and play functional roles. The diversity of this structural ensemble can be estimated using a metric derived from the calculated RNA partition function: the <i>ensemble diversity</i>. In this report, 10 classes of functional RNAs were analyzed: the 5.8S and 5S rRNAs, ribozyme, RNase P, snoRNA, snRNA, SRP RNA, tmRNA, Vault RNA and Y RNA. Representative sequences from each ...[more]
