By using DNase I footprinting and gel mobility shift assays, the binding of protein factors in these extracts to the human βglobin promoter was analyzed. The differences in the binding patterns of protein factors during development were observed. An erythroid-specific and stage-specific nuclear protein in the nuclear extract from d 18 mouse fetal liver was identified, which can bind to the sequence (from -66bp to -90bp) of human β-globin promoter. We therefore speculate that the function of this cis-acting element may be similar to stage selector element (SSE) in chieken βA- promoter.展开更多
