Abstract excerpt
We report the generation and characterisation of the first transgenic mice exclusively expressing normal human beta-globin ((hu)beta-globin) from a 183 kb genomic fragment. Four independent lines were generated, each containing 2-6 copies of the (hu)beta-globin locus at a single integration site. Steady state levels of (hu)beta-globin protein were dependent on transgene copy number, but independent of the site of...
