Ouroboros resembling competitive endogenous loop (ORCEL) in circular RNAs revealed through transcriptome sequencing dataset analysis
BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence indicates that Circular RNAs (circRNAs) exert post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. A subclass of circRNA was found enriched with miRNA target sites. This evidence suggests that this kind of circRNA functions as natural miRNA sponge. Noticing the potential...

description | BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence indicates that Circular RNAs (circRNAs) exert post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. A subclass of circRNA was found enriched with miRNA target sites. This evidence suggests that this kind of circRNA functions as natural miRNA sponge. Noticing the potential impacts of circular RNA research, we were motivated to identify novel circRNAs as well as putative circRNA-miRNA interactions through retroactive sourced transcriptome sequencing samples. RESULTS: Through the analysis in 465 RNA-seq runs and 22 reports published in recent years, putatively circRNA sponged miRNA that had been experimentally verified targeting circRNA host gene were found. From this observation, supporting evidence of the competitive endogenous relationship of circRNAs and miRNAs targeting circRNA host genes can be observed. Given the self-regulation and self-induction nature of these circRNAs, this kind of hypothetical phenomenon was hereby called Ouroboros Resembling Competitive Endogenous Loop (ORCEL) in circular RNAs. CONCLUSIONS: The fact that miRNA sponge circRNA originated from region miRNA target sites enriched regions, while genes encoded from these regions are conserved to be miRNA targets rationalize the existence of ORCEL. ELECTRONIC SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL: The online version of this article (10.1186/s12864-018-4456-9) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users. |
