Sfold is a software program developed to predict probable RNA secondary structures through structure ensemble sampling and centroid predictions[1][2] with a focus on assessment of RNA target accessibility,[3] for major applications to the rational design of siRNAs[4] in the suppression of gene expressions, and to the identification of targets for regulatory RNAs particularly microRNAs.[5][6]
