Description | Internal loops are common elements of RNA secondary structure. They often form binding sites for metals, proteins and other RNAs. To under-stand the effects of internal loops on RNA structure and function, we have carried out molecular dynamics simulations of 5S rRNA Loop E-Helix IV/protein L25. |
