Abstract
ABSTRACTRibosoft 2.0 is the second version of a web service to design different types oftrans-acting conventional and allosteric ribozymes. The web service is publicly available athttps://ribosoft2.fungalgenomics.ca/. Ribosoft 2.0 uses template secondary structures that can be submitted by users to design ribozymes in accordance with parameters provided by the user. The generated designs specifically target a transcript (or, generally, an RNA sequence) given by the user. Herein, sixty ribozymes of different types were tested on two different mRNAs, with a majority shown to be active. We have also generated and proved the activity of the firsttrans-acting aptazyme designedin silico.
