Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention is designed in the fields of medical genomics and computational biology, and specifically relates to a high-throughput chip data processing and analysis process control method for circular RNA. Background technique
[0002] Circular RNA (circular RNA, circRNA) is a recently discovered special type of non-coding RNA, which exists in large quantities in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells, and is mainly produced by pre-mRNA through alternative splicing. With a closed circular structure, most circular RNAs are composed of exon sequences, which are conserved in different species and have expression specificity in tissues and different developmental stages. Because circular RNA is insensitive to nucleases, it is more stable than linear RNA, which makes circular RNA have obvious advantages in the development and application of new clinical diagnostic markers. However, there are many problems in using circular RNA as a marker. For example, a larg...
