Small molecule targeting r(UGGAA)(n) disrupts RNA foci and alleviates disease phenotype in Drosophila model

Synthetic small molecules modulating RNA structure and function have therapeutic potential for RNA diseases. Here we report our discovery that naphthyridine carbamate dimer (NCD) targets disease-causing r(UGGAA)(n) repeat RNAs in spinocerebellar ataxia type 31 (SCA31). Structural analysis of the NCD...
