  1. Benchmarks of BARRIERS, PathwayHunter, Findpath, RNATabuPath, and RNAEAPath for predicting folding pathways between conformational switches. Energy barriers (measured in kcal/mol) of the best folding pathways over n runs are shown. Boldface numbers are the best energy barriers found by the heuristic algorithms.
