The database of the smallest known auto-replicable RNA species: Viroids and viroid-like RNAs

Abstract

This is an online database in order to facilitate research on viroid, viroid-like RNAs and human hepatitis delta virus by presenting a large number of sequences and related data in a comprehensive and user-friendly format (e.g., position of their self-catalytic domains, open reading frame, prediction of the most stable secondary structures, etc.). This online database is available on the WWW at http://www.callisto.si.usherb.ca/~jpperra.
