An Erythroid Enhancer of BCL11A Subject to Genetic Variation Determines Fetal Hemoglobin Level

TL;DR: It is found that common genetic variation at BCL11A associated with fetal hemoglobin (HbF) level lies in noncoding sequences decorated by an erythroid enhancer chromatin signature, illustrating how GWASs may expose functional variants of modest impact within causal elements essential for appropriate gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

ProxTom lymphatic vessel reporter mice reveal Prox1 expression in the adrenal medulla, megakaryocytes, and platelets.

TL;DR: The faithful expression of the fluorescent reporter in ProxTom LVs indicates that these mice have potential utility in the study of diseases as diverse as lymphedema, filariasis, transplant rejection, obesity, and tumor metastasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of RhoA-specific guanine exchange factors in regulation of endomitosis in megakaryocytes.

TL;DR: Using primary cells, it is demonstrated that the guanine exchange factors GEF-H1 and ECT2, which are often overexpressed in cancer and are essential for RhoA activation during cytokinesis, must be downregulated for Mk polyploidization.
