Incorporating global features of RNA motifs in predictions for an ensemble of secondary structures for encapsidated MS2 bacteriophage RNA

Abstract: The secondary structure of encapsidated MS2 genomic RNA poses an interesting RNA folding challenge. Cryoelectron microscopy has demonstrated that encapsidated MS2 RNA is well-ordered. Models of MS2 assembly suggest that the RNA hairpin-protein interactions and the appropriate placement of hairpins in the MS2 RNA secondary structure can guide the formation of the correct icosahedral particle. The RNA hairpin motif that is recognized by the MS2 capsid protein dimers, however, is energetically unfavorable, and th… Show more

“…The birth of a specialized machine designed for MD simulation-Anton [36], [37] has increased the timescale limitation up to 200 times compared to simulations with conventional High Performance Computing (HPC) machines. Recent advances in software development and RNA structure modeling have improved the building of RNA models [38][48]. Together with enhanced sampling techniques [49][52] these modeling tools extend the accessible conformational space beyond that available within even the extended MD timescales.…”

“…The ability to compute the complete set of possible structures with Crumple expands the potential applications of approaches such as Barmap to modeling RNA folding. The output of Crumple can also be used with programs such as Sliding Windows and Assembly [8], [9] to explore possible conformations of longer sequences, with local cotranscriptional folding. Thus, Crumple offers a useful alternative to traditional RNA folding methods.…”

“…Concatenation of the 14mer to make 28mers and 42mers creates test cases that include multibranch loops. The Crumple algorithm has been applied to or tested on the following biological sequences: a section of the 5′ untranslated region of the HIV-1 RNA [8], satellite tobacco mosaic virus RNA [8], MS2 bacteriophage RNA [9], a section of the 3′untranslated region of Alfalfa Mosaic Virus RNA, 4 guide RNA from Trypanosome brucei , and a bacterial noncoding RNA MicA. In all cases, the minimum free energy structures predicted by rnafold, mfold, or RNAStructure were present in the Crumple output (Figure S1).…”

“…CP molecules first form a dimer. The dimer can bind to an RNA hairpin and then undergoes an allosteric conformational change in the FG loop region (Bleckley and Schroeder, 2012), forming an asymmetric A/B dimer rather than a symmetric C/C dimer (Borodavka et al, 2012;Rolfsson et al, 2010; , 2007). The FG loops of the B conformation of CP surround the fivefold vertices of the icosahedron, and the A and C conformations interdigitate at the threefold vertices of the icosahedron, thus forming an icosahedron of 60 A/B dimers and 30 C/C dimers Valegård et al, 1990).…”
