De novo discovery of "motifs" capturing the commonalities among related noncoding structured RNAs is among the most difficult problems in computational biology. This chapter outlines the challenges presented by this problem, together with some approaches towards solving them, with an emphasis on an approach based on the CMfinder program as a case study. Applications to genomic screens for novel de novo structured ncRNAs, including structured RNA elements in untranslated portions of protein-coding genes, are presented.
