Fibrillarin modulates fetal hemoglobin silencing

2024-06-25

Abstract excerpt

Decoding the molecular mechanisms underlying human fetal (γ) globin gene silencing impacts therapeutic strategies for β-thalassemia and sickle cell disease. Here, we identified a nucleolar protein, fibrillarin (FBL), which mediates the methylation of glutamine104 in histone H2A and functions as a repressor of the γ-globin gene in cultured erythroid cells, including those from β-thalassemia patients. Conditional F...
