The emerging roles and functions of circular RNAs and their generation
Abstract Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are closed long non-coding RNAs, in which the 5’ and 3’ termini are covalently linked by back-splicing of exons from a single pre-mRNA. Emerging evidence indicates that circRNAs are broadly expressed in mammalian cells and show cell type- or tissue-specific expressi...
