On the Applicability of Elastic Network Models for the Study of RNA CUG Trinucleotide Repeat Overexpansion.
Non-coding RNAs play a pivotal role in a number of diseases promoting an aberrant sequestration of nuclear RNA-binding proteins. In the particular case of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), a multisystemic autosomal dominant disease, the formation of large non-coding CUG repeats set up long-tract hair...
