Screen identifies proteins controlling circular RNA metabolism

Original: Large-scale RNA-binding protein tethering screen discovers modulators of circular RNA metabolism

A large-scale RNA-binding protein tethering screen has identified new modulators of circular RNA metabolism, according to a study published in Nature. The approach systematically tethers hundreds of RNA-binding proteins to a target transcript to test how each affects circular RNA formation and turnover. The findings give researchers a map of proteins that regulate circular RNAs, molecules increasingly implicated in gene regulation and disease.

Why now: The study's publication in Nature and its systematic identification of circular RNA regulators make it notable for the molecular biology community.
