A silencer element from the alpha-globin gene inhibits expression of beta-like genes.

G F Atweh1, J M Liu, H E Brickner, X X Zhu.   

Abstract

We have studied the cis and trans interactions of the alpha- and beta-globin genes in a transient expression system. We found that the alpha-globin gene inhibited beta-globin expression in cis but not in trans. The silencer element responsible for this inhibition was localized to a 259-base-pair fragment at the 5' end of the alpha-globin gene.
