Circular RNA: Characters, Characteristics of circular RNA & Plausible functions

In molecular biology, circular ribonucleic acid (or circRNA) is a type of single-stranded RNA which, unlike linear RNA, forms a covalently closed continuous loop. In circular RNA, the 3' and 5' ends normally present in an RNA molecule have been joined together. This feature confers numerous properties to circular RNA, many of which have only recently…
