Summary Discovering function-related structural features, such as the cloverleaf shape of transfer RNA secondary structures, is essential to understand RNA function. With this aim, we have developed a platform, named Structurexplor, to facilitate the exploration of structural features in populations of RNA secondary structures. It has been designed and developed to help biologists interactively search for, evaluate and select interesting structural features that can potentially explain RNA functions. Availability and implementation Structurxplor is a web application available at http://structurexplor.dinf.usherbrooke.ca. The source code can be found at http://jpsglouzon.github.io/structurexplor/.
