miRNAFold

miRNAFold is dedicated for microRNA precursors identication at a large scale in genomes and allows to predict microRNA hairpin structures in fast way and with high sensitivity. It is based on an original method where an approximation of miRNA hairpin structure is first searched for, before reconstituting the pre-miRNA structure, allowing substantial decrease in the theoretical time complexity and time searching, compared to the state of art.
