The most well-studied regions in the human genome belong to protein-
coding genes.
Coding exons are 1.5% of the genome.
Non-protein-coding portion of the genome has shown to have functional consequences in development, physiology and human disease (cancer, neurodegenerative diseases…)
microRNAs.

In humans, microRNAs regulate expression of mRNAs. microRNAs guide the effector protein Argonaute complex (AGO) to
mRNAs of coding genes to repress their protein production. AGO proteins interact with microRNAs and are involved in cytoplasmic
post-transcriptional gene-silencing processes

Discovered in plants.
circRNA molecules stable in the cytoplasm: single-stranded viruses,
such as hepatitis 6 virus or the plant viroids and virusoids.
The first best known circRNA is antisense to the mRNA transcribed
from the SRY gene highly expressed in testes.

In animals are an enigmatic class of RNA with unknown function.
circRNA contains miRNA target sites and seems to be
regulating the miRNA activity. cirRNA acts like miRNA sponge.

They sequence total RNA from a human cell retaining the spliced reads.
Next, the mapp spiced reads to the reference genome.
They detect circularization splicing from the reversed (head-to-tail)
orientation of exons (ANTISENSE).

Combining data from cell line HEK 293 and human leukocyte data they identifie 1950 cirRNAs IN HUMANS.
1903 cirRNAs in mouse, 81 of mapped to human
circRNAs. To explore if circRNAs exist in other animal they
used sequencing data from various C. Elegans developmental detecting 724 circRNAs

They intersect their catalogue of circRNAs with transcript
annotations and then look for conserved matches to miRNA families. They found that circRNA antisense to the cerebellar degeneration-
related protein 1 transcript was densely bound by microRNA. ciRS-7 has 74 conserved microR-7 seed matches. 63 conserved in at
least one other species indicating that microR-7 binding sites are probably functional

ciRS-7 functions as a microR-7 suppressor.
microR-7 disruption increase levels of miR-7 targets.

They knockdown ciRS-7 in HEK293 cells and
monitor expression of published miR-7 targets. All miR-7 targets were low expressed.

In humans miR-7 is highly expressed in neuronal tissues, pancreas and pituitary gland.
They quantified levels of ciRS-7 and mir-7
across mouse tissues.

Evidence: ciRS-7 is exclusively for adult and embryonic mouse brain.
ciRS-7 and miR-7 seem to interact specifically in neuronal
tissues.

In zebrafish, knockdown of miR-7 or expression of ciR-7 causes midbrain defects.
Evidence: miR-7 loss-of-function causes a specific reduction of midbrain size.

ciRS-7 post-transcriptional regulator by binding miR-7 in brain ciRS-7 harbours 74 miR-7 seed matches, often deeply
conserved. ciRS-7 and miR-7 share specific expression domains in
mouse embryonic brain
ciRS-7 suppress miR-7 activity resulting in increased levels of miR-7 targets and size brain decreases.

miR-7 is a key regulator of various cancer pathways (Thomas B.
Hansen et al). miR-7 is involved in Parkinson’s disease by direct targeting of a-
synuclein protein expression (Junn E et al). ciRS-7 probably serves as a crucial factor in the functioning of
neurons as well as a responsible candidate in neurological disorders and brain tumor development.

CircularRNAs are imortant post-transcriptional regulators of
gene expression acting by direct base pairing to microRNA.
microRNAs regulates the expression of mRNA usually by
suppression.
