Journal ArticleDOI

The locus control region is required for association of the murine β-globin locus with engaged transcription factories during erythroid maturation

TL;DR: The results suggest that the LCR-dependent association of the beta-globin locus with transcriptionally engaged Pol II foci provides the driving force for relocalization of the locus toward the nuclear interior during erythroid maturation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A genetic analysis of chromosome territory looping: diverse roles for distal regulatory elements

TL;DR: Evidence is shown that extrusion of a gene locus from a CT by itself is not necessarily indicative of transcriptional activity, but also can reflect a poised state for activation, as well as the previously documented transcriptionally active state.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple functions of Ldb1 required for β-globin activation during erythroid differentiation

TL;DR: It is shown that Ldb1 controls gene expression at multiple levels, and reduction of LDB1 results in the inability of the locus to migrate away from the nuclear periphery, which is necessary to achieve robust transcription of β-globin in nuclear transcription factories.
