| Biological function: |
Not specified (circRNA RNA itself was not the functional effector; its encoded protein CM-248aa mediates tumor-suppressive effects). |
| Molecular mechanism: |
Encodes CM-248aa; the circRNA RNA sequence itself is insufficient to suppress malignant phenotypes when translation is blocked. |

RNA-seq; RT-qPCR; Northern Blot; Back-Splice Junction PCR / divergent primers PCR; Sanger Sequencing; RNase R Treatment; Actinomycin D / DRB Stability Assay; FISH / smFISH; Nuclear-Cytoplasmic Fractionation; Clinical Sample Validation |
| Clinical significance: |
circMTHFD2L is downregulated in GC tissues and GC cell lines compared with controls. |
| Description: |
circMTHFD2L (hsa_circ_0069982) is downregulated in gastric cancer and mainly localized in the cytoplasm. Its biological impact in this study is primarily through encoding the peptide CM-248aa; restoring circMTHFD2L RNA without CM-248aa translation does not reverse malignant phenotypes. |
