Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The LIM-finger protein LMO2 forms a transcription factor complex with other hematopoietic regulator proteins, such as TAL1 (SCL), LDB1, GATA1, 2, and 3, in the promoters of several erythroid genes. To elucidate the functional role of two LIM domains in LMO2, we introduced deletion or mutation in each of the LIM domains and analyzed their phenotypic effects on the hematopoietic system when overexpressed...
