The biogenesis, biology and characterization of circular RNAs
Abstract
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 exert important biological functions by acting as microRNA or protein inhibitors ('sponges'), by regulating protein function or by being translated themselves. Furthermore, circRNAs have been implicated in diseases such as diabetes mellitus, neurological disorders, cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Although the circular nature of these transcripts makes their detection, quantification and functional characterization challenging, recent advances in high-throughput RNA sequencing and circRNA-specific computational tools have driven the development of state-of-the-art approaches for their identification, and novel approaches to functional characterization are emerging.

circRNAs, which have been proposed to act as miRNA sponges, could influence miRNA arm availability by sequestering miRNAs that have target sites within the circRNA.
“It is also possible that circRNAs, which have been proposed to act as miRNA sponges (reviewed in Kristensen et al., 2019; Thomson & Dinger, 2016), could influence miRNA arm availability by sequestering miRNAs that have target sites within the circRNA.”

circRNA can be translated in eukaryotic cells and, due to its closed-ring structure, is significantly more resistant to exonuclease-mediated degradation compared with linear mRNA.
“circRNA (also called endless RNA) can be translated in eukaryotic cells48 and, due to its closed-ring structure, is significantly more resistant to exonuclease-mediated degradation compared with linear mRNA.151”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
