Regulated high level expression of a human gamma-globin gene introduced into erythroid cells by an adeno-associated virus vector.
1 Aug 1992
Abstract excerpt
Gene therapy of severe hemoglobinopathies will require high-level expression of a transferred globin gene in erythroid cells. Distant regulatory elements flanking the beta-globin gene cluster, the locus control region, are needed for appropriate expression. We have explored the use of a human parvovirus, the adeno-associated virus (AAV), for globin gene transfer. The human A gamma-globin gene, linked to...
