A tetramer of BCL11A is required for stable protein production and fetal hemoglobin silencing | Science

Down-regulation of BCL11A protein reverses the fetal (HbF, α2γ2) to adult (HbA, α2β2) hemoglobin switch and is exploited in gene-based therapy for hemoglobin disorders. Because of reliance on ex vivo cell manipulation and marrow transplant, such …
