Statistical properties of thermodynamically predicted RNA secondary structures in viral genomes
Marco Spanò, Fabrizio Lillo, Salvatore Miccichè +1
By performing a comprehensive study on 1832 segments of 1212 complete genomes of viruses, we show that in viral genomes the hairpin structures of thermodynamically predicted RNA se…

Inverted and mirror repeats in model nucleotide sequences
Fabrizio Lillo, Marco Spanó
We analytically and numerically study the probabilistic properties of inverted and mirror repeats in model sequences of nucleic acids. We consider both perfect and non-perfect repe…

Inverted Repeats in Viral Genomes
M. Spano, F. Lillo, S. Micciche +1
We investigate 738 complete genomes of viruses to detect the presence of short inverted repeats. The number of inverted repeats found is compared with the prediction obtained for a…
