Popis: We develop a simple, coarse-grained approach for simulating the folding of the Beet Western Yellow Virus (BWYV) pseudoknot toward the goal of creating a transferable model that can be used to study other small RNA molecules. This approach combines a structure-based model (SBM) of RNA with an electrostatic scheme that has previously been shown to correctly reproduce ionic condensation in the native basin. Mg
