Michel F and Costa M, Inferring RNA structure by phylogenetic and genetic analysis. In RNA Structure and Function, CSH Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, NY. 1998 pp 175-202
This is an elderly review of the whole comparative approach, but focued on the intermediate state - the refinement of the secondary structure and the identification of higher-order structure. (2Mbyte PDF) |

Massire C, Jaeger L and Westhof E 2008 Derivation of the three-dimensional architecture of bacterial ribonuclease P RNAs from comparative sequence analysis. J. Mol. Biol. 279:733-793
This is also an elderly paper, but a wonderful example of bringing everything together into a useful three-dimensional model. (3.8Mbyte PDF) |
