Big updates to bioinformatics software
workbenches
CLC bio releases major updates to its popular family of bioinformatics software workbenches, expanding the family with the brand new CLC RNA Workbench; free 30-day trial can be downloaded
The newcomer in CLC bio's workbench family focuses on RNA secondary structure prediction, using state-of-the-art free energy minimisation algorithms - and is the first to offer an integrated and professional solution for RNA research Chief scientific officer at CLC bio, Bjarne Knudsen, states: RNA research is undergoing a fundamental change these years, as scientists have realised that RNA is as vital as DNA and proteins - and may even function as the cell's operating system, to draw a computing analogy

New discoveries are also continuously appearing from molecular virology where the form and function of RNA structures has proved to be of paramount importance in the life-cycle of viruses such as Sars, HIV, polio- and hepatitis virus.
In consequence a whole new level of understanding has opened in fields such as virology, pathology, molecular biology and genomics, and that is why RNA research is at the frontier of biological research today.
With CLC RNA Workbench, CLC bio offers a solution which will help RNA researchers to a considerably more efficient workflow, and thereby also save precious time in the research phases.
Furthermore, researchers will get better quality in the results, due to the easy and user-friendly access to the cutting edge algorithms included in this new workbench.
