Biogenesis of Circular RNAs
نویسندگان
چکیده
Circular RNAs are generated during splicing through various mechanisms. Ashwal-Fluss et al. demonstrate that exon circularization and linear splicing compete with each other in a tissue-specific fashion, and Zhang et al. show that exon circularization depends on flanking intronic complementary sequences. Both papers show that several types of circular RNA transcripts can be produced from a single gene.

Circular RNA: features, functions and their correlation with diseases especially cancer
In early 2012, the world of science saw a fascinating discovery called circular RNA as a transcription product of thousands of genes in mice and humans. These circular RNAs have recently been grouped as the encoding RNA in an independent group that their remarkable difference with other RNAs is that these RNAs are not linear, in which two ends connect with a covalent connection creating a loop-...
متن کاملIdentification of soybean circular RNAs in response to low nitrogen and phosphorus stress
Soybean, one of the most important sources of edible oil and protein in the world, is exposed to various environmental biotic and abiotic stresses. These stresses can negatively impact the quality and quantity of soybean production. This study aimed to identify genes that express circular RNAs in response to low phosphorus and nitrogen stresses in soybean roots. Soybean seeds were grown under d...
متن کاملCircular box C/D RNAs in Pyrococcus furiosus.
Box C/D RNAs are small, noncoding RNAs that function in RNA modification in eukaryotes and archaea. Here, we report that box C/D RNAs exist in the rare biological form of RNA circles in the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus. Northern analysis of box C/D RNAs reveals two prominent RNA species of different electrophoretic mobilities in total P. furiosus RNA preparations. Together, th...
متن کاملIdentification of Circular RNAs from the Parental Genes Involved in Multiple Aspects of Cellular Metabolism in Barley
RNA circularization made by head-to-tail back-splicing events is involved in the regulation of gene expression from transcriptional to post-translational levels. By exploiting RNA-Seq data and down-stream analysis, we shed light on the importance of circular RNAs in plants. The results introduce circular RNAs as novel interactors in the regulation of gene expression in plants and imply the comp...
متن کاملCircular RNAs: Unexpected outputs of many protein-coding genes.
Pre-mRNAs from thousands of eukaryotic genes can be non-canonically spliced to generate circular RNAs, some of which accumulate to higher levels than their associated linear mRNA. Recent work has revealed widespread mechanisms that dictate whether the spliceosome generates a linear or circular RNA. For most genes, circular RNA biogenesis via backsplicing is far less efficient than canonical spl...
