Genetic regulators of fetal hemoglobin
Genetic Regulators of fetal hemoglobin
Background
During human development, the major hemoglobin in red blood cells changes from fetal hemoglobin (HbF, α₂γ₂) to adult hemoglobin (HbA, α₂β₂) shortly after birth. This change, known as the fetal-to-adult hemoglobin switch, involves a transcriptional shift from the γ-globin...
