The distal β‐globin CACCC box is required for maximal stimulation of the β‐globin gene by EKLF

Summary The transcription factor erythroid Kruppel‐like factor (EKLF) specifically activates the β‐globin gene by interacting with the proximal β‐globin CACCC box, a known hot spot for thalassaemia mutations. This study investigated whether EKLF could also bind to, and activate from, the distal CACC...
