Delta virusoid. The predicted most significant mutation for the virusoid sequence from Hepatitis delta virus. (A) Wild-type folded structure along with its representing dot plot matrix. The computed RNAfold global minimum energy is dG = -68.6. (B) The mutated folded structure with the largest distance grade from DoPloCompare (DP) = 0.023. The RNAdistance grade for this structure (Rdist) = 60. The computed RNAfold global minimum energy is dG = -67.5. (C) The mutated folded structure with the largest RNAdistance grade (Rdist) = 62. The DoPloCompare grade (DP) = 0.022. The computed RNAfold global minimum energy is dG = -63.7 kcals/mole.
