Abstract excerpt
Erythropoietin (EPO) is the primary humoral regulator of mammalian erythropoiesis. The single-copy EPO gene is normally expressed in liver and kidney, and increased transcription is induced by anemia or cobalt chloride administration. To identify cis-acting DNA sequences responsible for regulated expression, transgenic mice were generated by microinjection of a 4-kilobase-pair (kb) (tgEPO4) or 10-kb (tgEPO10)...
