This volume presents readers with up-to-date protocols, bioinformatics toolkits, and reference material for understanding circRNAs in plants. The chapters in this book summarize the concepts and techniques for prediction/identification, validation, and analysis of plant circRNAs and their regulatory ta...
Methods for Annotation and Validation of Circular RNAs from RNAseq Data: Methods and ProtocolsCIRICircular RNAFindCircSegemehlcircRNAsCircular RNAs are an emerging class of transcript isoforms created by unique back splicing of exons to form a closed covalent circular structure. While initially considered...
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are covalently closed, endogenous biomolecules in eukaryotes with tissue-specific and cell-specific expression patterns, whose biogenesis is regulated by specific cis-acting elements and trans-acting factors. Some circRNAs are abundant and evolutionarily conserved, and many circRNAs...
Although tens of thousands of circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been identified in mammalian genomes, only few of them have been characterized with biological functions. Here, we report a new approach, circScan, to identify regulatory interactions between circRNAs and RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) by di...
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have important roles in regulating developmental processes and disease progression. As most circRNA sequences are highly similar to their cognate linear transcripts, the current short-read sequencing-based methods rely on the back-spliced junction signal for distinguishing circular...

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a novel class of noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression at the transcriptional or posttranscriptional level. According to recent studies, circRNAs are involved in the pathogenesis of cancer, but the roles of circRNAs in lung adenocarcinoma are largely unknown. Meth...
Here, we demonstrate that standard protocols involving RNase R can fail to digest >20% of all highly expressed linear RNAs, but these shortcomings can largely be overcome. RNAs with highly structured 3′ ends, including snRNAs and histone mRNAs, are naturally resistant to RNase R, but can be...
Accumulating data have shown that circular RNAs (circRNAs) act as key roles in oncogenesis. In this project, circ_0026134 expression in NSCLC tissue specimens and cells was measured by RT-qPCR. The functional roles (cell growth, apoptosis, migration, and invasion) of circ_0026134 were ...
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are covalently enclosed, single-stranded RNAs produced by back-splicing of pre-mRNA exons that have recently emerged as an important class of molecules in gene expression regulation. circRNAs share overlapping sequences with thei
