mechanisms of structure formation. Two classes of biopolymer molecules will be discussed: nucleic acids and proteins.Special emphasis is laid on theoretical principles and concepts. It will be focused on secondary and tertiary structure prediction of nucleic acids and proteins. Mathematical basics are presented to describe and computationaly analyse tertiary structures of
biomolecules. Computational methods based
on RNA secondary structure and their application in the simulation of folding dynamics are depicted.All theoretical basics are explained on descriptive examples.
