3plex Web: An interactive platform for RNA:DNA triplex prediction and analysis.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) exert their functions by cooperating with other molecules, including proteins and DNA. Triplexes, formed through the interaction between a single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) and a double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), have been consistently described as a mechanism that allows lncRNAs to target specific genomic sequences in vivo. Building on the computational tool 3plex, we developed 3plex Web, an accessible platform that enhances the prediction of RNA:DNA triplexes by integrating interactive visualization, statistical evaluation, and user-friendly downstream analysis workflows. 3plex Web implements new features such as input randomization for statistical assessments, interactive profile plotting for triplex stability, and customizable DNA Binding Domain (DBD) selection.
