To know whether colonies can be formed on soft agar plate.
I am doing RNA dot blot experiment to probe epitranscriptomic changes in brain tissue. I am not getting good signal with total RNA. I doubt my denaturation step as I am heating my samples at 95...

I have seen many papers performing divergent PCR to detect the circular RNA products. I am not sure if the reverse transcription of circular RNA yields circular DNA with random hexamers.
