Activation of human beta-globin genes from nonerythroid cells by fusion with murine erythroleukemia cells.

abstract：:The multiwavelength anomalous diffraction (MAD) method for phase evaluation is now widely used in macromolecular crystallography. Successful MAD structure determinations have been carried out at the K or L absorption edges of a variety of elements. In this study, we investigate the anomalous scattering properties of u...
