Demonstration of a human epsilon-globin gene silencer with studies in
transgenic mice

The human epsilon-globin gene displays normal developmental regulation in
transgenic mice; it is expressed only in embryonic and in definitive
erythroid cells. We show here that deletion of a negative element located
between -182 and -467 bp upstream of the epsilon-globin gene cap site
results in continuation of epsilon gene expression in the definitive
erythroblasts of the fetal liver and in the red blood cells of adult
transgenic mice. These data provide direct in vivo evidence that cis acting
silencing elements are involved in the developmental control of the
epsilon-globin gene.
