Gfi-1B plays a critical role in terminal differentiation of normal and transformed erythroid progenitor cells
27 Oct 2004
Abstract excerpt
Growth factor independence-1B (Gfi-1B) is a transcription factor with a highly conserved transcriptional repressor snail-Gfi-1 (SNAG) domain and 6 zinc-finger domains at the N- and C-terminus, respectively. Disruption of the Gfi-1B gene is lethal in the embryo with failure to produce definitive enucleated erythrocytes. In this study, we analyzed the role of Gfi-1B in human erythropoiesis. We observed an increase...
