RED CELLS Deletion of the core region of 5 HS2 of the mouse -globin locus control region reveals a distinct effect in comparison with human -globin transgenes
The -globin locus control region (LCR) is a large DNA element that is required for high-level expression of -like globin genes from the endogenous mouse locus or in transgenic mice carrying the human -globin locus. The LCR encompasses 6 DNaseI hypersensitive sites (HSs) that bind transcription factors. These HSs each contain a core of a few hundred base pairs (bp) that has most of the functiona...
متن کاملDifferential requirement of a distal regulatory region for pre-initiation complex formation at globin gene promoters
Although distal regulatory regions are frequent throughout the genome, the molecular mechanisms by which they act in a promoter-specific manner remain to be elucidated. The human beta-globin locus constitutes an extremely well-established multigenic model to investigate this issue. In erythroid cells, the beta-globin locus control region (LCR) exerts distal regulatory function by influencing lo...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Human {-Globin Gene Promoter in Transgenic Mice
{-Globin is the embryonic form of the O( chain of hemoglobin. Transgenic mice generated with {-globin constructs containing the {-globin gene, 557 bp of 5 flanking sequence, and 2-kb of 3 flanking sequence linked to the @globin locus control region hypersensitive site 2 (HS2) expressed human {-globin only in embryonic yolk sac erythroid tissue, and not in definitive erythroid tissue in the feta...
متن کاملGamma-globin gene promoter elements required for interaction with globin enhancers.
Normal expression of the human beta-globin domain genes is dependent on at least three types of regulatory elements located within the beta-globin domain: the locus control region (LCR), globin enhancer elements (3'beta and 3'Agamma), and the individual globin gene promoter and upstream regions. It has been postulated that regulation occurs through physical interactions between factors bound to...
متن کاملDescription and targeted deletion of 5' hypersensitive site 5 and 6 of the mouse beta-globin locus control region.
The most upstream hypersensitive site (HS) of the beta-globin locus control region (LCR) in humans (5' HS 5) and chickens (5' HS 4) can act as an insulating element in some gain of function assays and may demarcate a beta-globin domain. We have mapped the most upstream HSs of the mouse beta-globin LCR and sequenced this region. We find that mice have a region homologous to human 5' HS 5 that is...
