This resource is divided into the following sub-directories:

1. Differential Expression and Exon Usage Analysis

Here you will find raw count files for circRNAs (reads spanning back-spliced junctions), linear RNAs, and exons. The R markdown file includes all codes used for differential expression/exon usage analysis as well as gene ontology and correlative analyses.

2. Variant Analysis

This directory contains code and data files used to analyse variants in circRNA-forming exons.

3. Intron Analysis

Code and data required for analysis of circRNA flanking introns can be found in this directory.
