Secondary Structure Design for Cotranscriptional 3D RNA Origami Wireframes

Authors: Pekka Orponen, Shinnosuke Seki, and Antti Elonen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 347, 31st International Conference on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming (DNA 31) (2025)


Abstract
We address the task of secondary structure design for de novo 3D RNA origami wireframe structures in a way that takes into account the specifics of a cotranscriptional folding setting. We consider two issues: firstly, avoiding the topological obstacle of "polymerase trapping", where some helical domain cannot be hybridised due to a closed kissing-loop pair blocking the winding of the strand relative to the polymerase-DNA-template complex; and secondly, minimising the number of distinct kissing-loop designs needed, by reusing KL pairs that have already been hybridised in the folding process. For the first task, we present an efficient strand-routing method that guarantees the absence of polymerase traps for any 3D wireframe model, and for the second task, we provide a graph-theoretic formulation of the minimisation problem, show that it is NP-complete in the general case, and outline a branch-and-bound type enumerative approach to solving it. Key concepts in both cases are depth-first search in graphs and the ensuing DFS spanning trees. Both algorithms have been implemented in the DNAforge design tool (https://dnaforge.org) and we present some examples of the results.

The Topology of Scaffold Routings on Non-Spherical Mesh Wireframes

Authors: Abdulmelik Mohammed, Nataša Jonoska, and Masahico Saito

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 174, 26th International Conference on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming (DNA 26) (2020)


Abstract
The routing of a DNA-origami scaffold strand is often modelled as an Eulerian circuit of an Eulerian graph in combinatorial models of DNA origami design. The knot type of the scaffold strand dictates the feasibility of an Eulerian circuit to be used as the scaffold route in the design. Motivated by the topology of scaffold routings in 3D DNA origami, we investigate the knottedness of Eulerian circuits on surface-embedded graphs. We show that certain graph embeddings, checkerboard colorable, always admit unknotted Eulerian circuits. On the other hand, we prove that if a graph admits an embedding in a torus that is not checkerboard colorable, then it can be re-embedded so that all its non-intersecting Eulerian circuits are knotted. For surfaces of genus greater than one, we present an infinite family of checkerboard-colorable graph embeddings where there exist knotted Eulerian circuits.
