Creating clear, visually pleasing 2D depictions of RNA and DNA strands and their interactions is important to facilitate and communicate insights related to nucleic acid structure. Here we present RiboSketch, a secondary structure image production application that enables the visualization of multistranded structures via layout algorithms, comprehensive editing capabilities, and a multitude of simulation modes. These interactive features allow RiboSketch to create publication quality diagrams for structures with a wide range of composition, size and complexity. The program may be run in any web browser without the need for installation, or as a standalone Java application.
