  1. Performance of the RNA 2-D structure prediction programs in combination with RNAComposer or Rosetta when superimposed to the GT 3-D structure of the experimentally validated crRNAs. The mean and the standard deviation of the root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) values were calculated from three replicate runs of PyMOL align across all the predicted structures
