Direct interaction of NF-E2 with hypersensitive site 2 of the β-globin locus control region in living cells
1 Jul 2000
Abstract excerpt
The human beta-globin locus control region (LCR) confers high-level, tissue-specific expression to the beta-globin genes. Tandem Maf recognition elements (MAREs) within the hypersensitive site 2 (HS2) subregion of the LCR are important for the strong enhancer activity of the LCR. Multiple proteins are capable of interacting with these sites in vitro, including the erythroid cell- and megakaryocyte-specific...
