The folding free energy ΔG in kBT of the RNA three-way junction as a function of (A) Na+ concentration and (B) Mg2+ concentration (with 0.05 M Na+ background) for the different structural parameters dY and dy (see Supporting Material I and Fig. 7A). The two parameters are simultaneously increased or decreased, but we keep the same ratio of the radius of gyration Rg(Y)/Rg(y) between the folded (y) and the unfolded (Y) states.
