The presented techniques include powerful tools with a long tradition in RNA research as well as more advanced, novel methods, thus the methods span multiple disciplines, including molecular biology, biochemistry, biophysics, and computational biology. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Practical and authoritative, RNA Folding: Methods and Protocols serves as a vital reference for researchers attempting to gain insights into the secrets of this astounding macromolecule Notes Includes index Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes English Online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed October 21, 2013) Subject RNA -- Laboratory manuals Publication Formats Publication Characteristics Laboratory Manuals RNA Genre/Form Laboratory manuals Laboratory manuals.
