How to Use RNALfold | ViennaRNA

Commercially Available Online Web Server

Identify locally stable RNA secondary structures within a selected window.

Identify locally stable RNA secondary structures within a selected window. Upload or paste the appropriate RNA input, adjust the advanced settings if needed, and inspect the returned table and available visualizations.

How RNALfold | ViennaRNA Works

Local folding scans an RNA sequence for stable secondary structures with base-pair spans constrained by the selected window. The result includes each local structure, its position, and free energy. Nearby reported folds may overlap and should not be interpreted as one simultaneous global structure.

What is Neurosnap?

Neurosnap is the leading platform for bioinformatics and computational science focused on expanding access to powerful modeling and simulation tools. Because many state-of-the-art machine learning systems remain complex to install, configure, and scale, Neurosnap offers a clean, browser-based workspace that removes the burden of infrastructure management, dependency conflicts, and command-line tooling.

Built for biologists, chemists, and cross-disciplinary scientists, the platform enables advanced computational workflows without requiring expertise in software engineering or cloud architecture. Researchers can launch analyses through an intuitive interface, connect programmatically through a comprehensive API, and rely on automated resource management to scale workloads efficiently. By taking care of the underlying compute and operational complexity, Neurosnap allows teams to devote their energy to scientific progress and faster iteration. Security and data protection remain foundational principles, with clear safeguards outlined in our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy to ensure your work stays protected.
