Description | Loop-loop interactions between RNA hairpins represent an important class of RNA-RNA recognition motifs. These `kissing-loop' complexes participate in antisense regulation of a variety of cellular processes in prokaryotic cells and in bacteriophages. To under-stand the function of kissing complexes, we have carried out molecular dynamics simulations on two types of RNA kissing structures. |
