Description: AMIGOS II allows the user to perform interactive comparisons between RNA structures and to conduct database searches for specific RNA structures or substructures.
Downloading instructions: Please contact us if you would like to use AMIGOS II . You will be required to sign a license agreement, and then we will provide the software and installation instructions by email. It is free for academic use but carries a charge for industrial use.
Note: AMIGOS II is also available through SBGrid.
Description: Qnifft utilizes the non-linear Poisson-Boltzmann (NLPB) equation to calculate the electrostatic potentials of nucleic acids.
Kim Sharp has developed an updated version of Qnifft that can be compiled for both Linux and SGI platforms. This program is available from his website.
