abstract：:An erythroid-specific enhancer was previously identified in the 3'-flanking region of the beta adult gene in chicken and duck, by transfection into AEV transformed chicken erythroblasts. Here we show that the duck enhancer is equally active in erythroid human K562 cells, presenting an embryonic/fetal program of globin...
