Circular RNAs (cirRNAs) are a class of RNA molecules that result from the alternative back-splicing events that join the 3’ and 5’ ends normally present in the linear RNA molecules. It has been published that cirRNAs can function as gene regulators and as “microRNA sponges” to negatively control the functions of microRNAs. While many studies have been conducted to understand the regulatory roles of Mettl3 in linear messenger RNAs, fewer contributions were applied to understand the impact of Mettl3 modified cirRNAs on gene expression and on the regulation of different KEGG biological pathways and GO terms. This thesis was conducted …
