| Expression |
| Description | By northern blots, using probes detecting both linear and circular isoforms, we validated this circRNA to be specifically enriched in the brain, although its linear isoform mostly show much broader expression patterns across tissues. We found several circRNAs enriched in specific brain regions independent of their linear isoforms. Some circRNAs were highly enriched in the cerebellum: circRims2, circElf2, and circDym, while circPlxnd1 was enriched in the cortex. CircElf2 and circPhf21a showed predominant expression in the granular layer of cerebellum and olfactory bulb, consistent with qRT-PCR and northern blot analysis. |
