Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2522 more
- 21 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macro-autophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Circular Intronic Long Noncoding RNAs

Yang Zhang, +8 more
- 26 Sep 2013 - 
TL;DR: A cis-regulatory role of noncoding intronic transcripts on their parent coding genes is suggested, which largely accumulates to its sites of transcription, associates with elongation Pol II machinery, and acts as a positive regulator of Pol II transcription.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complementary Sequence-Mediated Exon Circularization

Xiao-Ou Zhang, +6 more
- 25 Sep 2014 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that exon circularization is dependent on flanking intronic complementary sequences in human introns and that alternative formation of inverted repeated Alu pairs can lead to alternative circularization, resulting in multiple circular RNA transcripts produced from a single gene.
Journal ArticleDOI

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2983 more
- 08 Feb 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a set of guidelines for investigators to select and interpret methods to examine autophagy and related processes, and for reviewers to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of reports that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diverse alternative back-splicing and alternative splicing landscape of circular RNAs

Xiao-Ou Zhang, +9 more
- 30 Jun 2016 - 
TL;DR: The annotation of alternative back-splicing and alternative splicing in circ RNAs provides a valuable resource for depicting the complexity of circRNA biogenesis and for studying the potential functions of circRNAs in different cells.
