Circular RNA (or circRNA) is a type of single-stranded covalently closed circular RNA molecule and play important roles in diverse biological pathways. A comprehensive functionally annotated circRNA database will help to understand the circRNAs and their functions. CircFunBase is such a web-accessible database that aims to provide a high-quality functional circRNA resource including experimentally validated and computationally predicted functions. CircFunBase provides visualized circRNA-miRNA interaction networks. In addition, a genome browser is provided to visualize the genome context of circRNA. In this chapter, we illustrate examples of searching for circRNA and getting detailed information of circRNA. Moreover, other circRNA related databases are outlined.
