Identification and characterization of extrachromosomal circular DNA in maternal plasma [PDF]
Significance We observed the presence of extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) in the plasma of pregnant women. We found that the plasma eccDNA molecules were longer than their linear counterparts. Among such eccDNA molecules, those of fetal origin were

Enhancer Extrachromosomal Circular DNA ANKRD28 Elicits Drug Resistance via POU2F2-Mediated Transcriptional Network in Multiple Myeloma. [PDF]
Enhancer eccANKRD28‐manipulated MM cells have been demonstrated to facilitate drug resistance and promote MM progression by activating the key transcription factor, POU2F2. POU2F2 interacts with sequence‐specific eccANKRD28 as well as RUNX1 and RUNX2 motifs to form the protein complex, which activates the promoter of oncogenes (IRF4, JUNB, IKZF3, et al.
