Kinfold

Description

The program  Kinfold  simulates the stochastic folding kinetics of RNA sequences into secondary structures. The algorithm operates on the basis of the formation, dissociation, and the shifting of individual base pairs. For the energy evaluation of RNA secondary structures  Kinfold  uses routines from the  Vienna RNA Package.
