NeuroCirc: an integrative resource of circular RNA expression in the human brain

CircRNAs are covalently closed RNA molecules that are particularly abundant in the brain. While circRNA expression data from the human brain is rapidly accumulating, integration of large-scale datasets remains challenging and time-consuming, and consequently an integrative view of circRNA expression in the human brain is currently lacking.

NeuroCirc is a web-based resource that allows interactive exploration of multiple types of circRNA data from the human brain, including large-scale expression datasets, circQTL data and circRNA expression across neuronal differentiation and cellular maturation time-courses. NeuroCirc also allows users to upload their own circRNA expression data and explore it in the integrative platform, thereby supporting circRNA prioritization for experimental validation and functional studies.

NeuroCirc is freely available at: https://voineagulab.github.io/NeuroCirc/. The source code and user documentation are available at: https://github.com/Voineagulab/NeuroCirc.
