Dominant control region of the human β- like globin gene cluster

The structure and regulation of the human β -like globin gene cluster has been studied extensively. Genetic disorders connected with this gene cluster are responsible for human diseases associated with high levels of morbidity and mortality, such as β-thalassaemia and sickle cell anaemia. The work described in this thesis is concerned with a novel tissue-specific regulatory element. ... Zie: Summar
