cMYB is involved in the regulation of fetal hemoglobin production in adults
13 Apr 2006
Abstract excerpt
A quantitative trait locus (QTL) controlling HbF levels has previously been mapped to chromosome 6q23 in an Asian-Indian kindred with beta thalassemia and heterocellular hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (HPFH). Five protein-coding genes, ALDH8A1, HBS1L, cMYB, AHI1, and PDE7B reside in this 1.5-megabase (Mb) candidate interval of 6q23. To direct sequencing efforts we compared the expression profiles of...
