Article Abstract
In vitro circular RNA (circRNA) preparation methods have been gaining a lot of attention recently as several reports suggest that circRNAs are more stable, with better performances in cells and in vivo, than linear RNAs in various biomedical applications. Self-splicing ribozymes are considered a major in vitro circRNA generation method for biomedical applications due to their simplicity and efficiency in the circularization of the gene of interest. This review summarizes, updates, and discusses the recently developed self-circularization methods based on the self-splicing ribozyme, such as group I and II intron ribozymes, and the pros and cons of each method in preparing circRNA in vitro.

Circular mRNA (mRNA) exhibits promising potential in mRNA therapy due to its increased stability and extended duration of protein translation, which has sparked an urgent demand for efficient methods to prepare circular RNAs . Here, we present a versatile self-circularization strategy that employs simple motifs to synthesize circular RNAs, achieving robust efficiencies for sequences ranging from dozens to thousands of nucleotides. By leveraging an automated computational program, we optimized highly specific lock-key structures to maximize circularization efficiency, particularly for long RNA substrates.

Circular RNA (circRNA) has various advantages over linear mRNA that is gaining success as a new vaccine and therapeutic agent. Thus, circRNA and its engineering methods have attracted attention recently. In this study, we developed a new circRNA engineering method by end-to-end self-targeting and splicing (STS) reaction using group I intron ribozyme.

Circular DNA offers benefits over linear DNA in diagnostic and field assays, but currently, circular DNA generation is lengthy, inefficient, highly dependent on the length and sequence of DNA, and can result in unwanted chimeras. We present streamlined methods for generating PCR-targeted circular DNA from a 700 bp amplicon of , the high GC content (65%) gene implicated in Mycobacterium tuberculosis bedaquiline resistance, and demonstrate that these methods work as desired. We employ self-circularization with and without splints, a Gibson cloning-based approach, and novel 2 novel methods for generating pseudocircular DNA.

Chromosome conformation capture technology and its derivatives have been widely used to study genome organization. Among them, Hi-C (chromosome conformation capture coupling with high-throughput sequencing) is popular in dissecting chromatin architecture on the genome-wide level. However, the intrinsic limitations prevent its application when it comes to rare samples.
