MicroDNA is the most abundant subtype of Extrachromosomal Circular DNA (eccDNA) in humans, typically ranging from 200-400 base pairs in length and enriched in non-repetitive genomic sequences with a high density of exons. Additionally, microDNA has been found to come from regions with CpG-islands which are commonly found within the 5' and 3' UTRs.
