Circular RNA (circRNA) is a covalently closed single-stranded RNA produced from pre-mRNAs via back-splicing reaction, an alternative form of splicing. Here, we show naphthyridine carbamate dimer (NCD) upregulating the production of a circRNA from a pre-mRNA containing NCD-binding site UGGAA/UGGAA in cells, demonstrating the feasibility of small-molecule mediated circRNA production.
