The authors introduced a method for predicting and visualizing a wide range of RNA structures, enabling the linking of RNA sequence to function, which helps in better understanding non-coding RNA function.
Non-coding RNAs (ncRNA) are essential for all life, and their functions often depend on their secondary (2D) and tertiary structure. Despite the abundance of software for the visualisation of ncRNAs, few automatically generate consistent and recognisable 2D layouts, which makes it challenging for users to construct, compare and analyse structures. Here, we present R2DT, a method for predicting and visualising a wide range of RNA structures in standardised layouts. R2DT is based on a library of 3,647 templates representing the majority of known structured RNAs. R2DT has been applied to ncRNA sequences from the RNAcentral database and produced >13 million diagrams, creating the world's largest RNA 2D structure dataset. The software is amenable to community expansion, and is freely available at https://github.com/rnacentral/R2DT and a web server is found at https://rnacentral.org/r2dt. Non-coding RNA function is poorly understood, partly due to the challenge of determining RNA secondary (2D) structure. Here, the authors present a framework for the reproducible prediction and visualization of the 2D structure of a wide array of RNAs, which enables linking RNA sequence to function.
