Abstract excerpt
The zinc finger transcription factor GATA-1 is essential for both primitive (embryonic) and definitive (adult) erythropoiesis. To define the roles of GATA-1 in the production and differentiation of primitive and definitive erythrocytes, we established GATA-1-null embryonic stem cell lines in which GATA-1 was able to be conditionally expressed by using the tetracycline conditional gene expression system. The cells...
