Abstract:
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are recognized as a special species of transcripts in metazoans with increasing studies, and northern blotting is a direct way to confirm the existence and to evaluate the size of individual circRNAs. Northern blotting probes can be radioactive isotope (32P) labeled, which is not environment-friendly and sometimes inconvenient to use. Here, we describe a nonradioactive northern blot protocol with digoxigenin-labeled probe to detect circRNA.
