Abstract

RNAs are essential molecules involved in numerous biological functions. Understanding RNA functions requires the knowledge of their 3D structures. Computational methods have been developed for over two decades to predict the 3D conformations from RNA sequences. These computational methods have been widely used and are usually categorised as either ab initio or template-based. The performances remain to be improved. Recently, the rise of deep learning has changed the sight of novel approaches. Deep learning methods are promising, but their adaptation to RNA 3D structure prediction remains difficult. In this paper, we give a brief review of the ab initio , template-based and novel deep learning approaches. We highlight the different available tools and provide a benchmark on nine methods using the RNA-Puzzles dataset. We provide an online dashboard that shows the predictions made by benchmarked methods, freely available on the EvryRNA platform: https://evryrna.ibisc.univ-evry.fr/evryrna/state_of_the_rnart/

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
