Figure 2.

Phylogenetic secondary structure, the predicted lowest free energy secondary structure, and the four suboptimal structures of E. coli 5S rRNA. Loops A–E are labeled in the phylogenetic structure. Base-paired regions that are predicted correctly in the suboptimal structures are shaded. Nucleotides cleaved by RNase H cleavage are circled. The lowest free energy structure only has 27% of the base pairs present in the phylogenetic structure.
