RNA performs and regulates a diverse range of cellular processes, with new functional roles being uncovered at a rapid pace. Interest is growing in how these functions are linked to RNA structures that form in the complex cellular environment. A growing suite of technologies that use advances in RNA structural probes, high-throughput sequencing and new computational approaches to interrogate RNA structure at unprecedented throughput are beginning to provide insights into RNA structures at new spatial, temporal and cellular scales. High-throughput sequencing technology is enabling the structures of RNA to be determined on an unprecedented scale, providing insights into the relationship between the structures adopted by RNAs and the functions they perform in the cell.
