Circular RNAs in the Central Nervous System
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous single-stranded RNAs characterized by covalently closed loop structures with neither 5′ to 3′ polarity nor poly(A) tails. They are generated most commonly from back-splicing of protein-coding exons. CircRNAs have a tissue-specific distribution and are evolutio...
