A Mathematical Analysis of RNA Structural Motifs in Viruses

RNA stem-loop structures play an important role in almost every step of the viral replication cycle. In this contribution, a mathematical analysis is performed on a large dataset of RNA secondary structure elements in the coding regions of viruses by using topological indices that capture the Laplac...
