Figure 8. Exon-intron circRNAs (EIciRNA) enhance transcription of parental gene.

Figure 8

Transcription of pre-mRNA from select genes generates both linear mRNA and EIciRNAs. EIciRNAs localize to the transcriptional start site (TSS) and enhance the transcription of the parental gene creating a positive feedback loop. A color version of the figure is available online.
