Disease relevance of hbbe1

  • Globin X mRNA significantly decreased under hypoxia, pointing to a functional linkage to oxygen-dependent metabolism [1].
  • The solitary LTRs of ERV-9 human endogenous retrovirus are middle repetitive DNAs associated with 3,000-4,000 human gene loci including the beta-globin gene locus where the ERV-9 LTR is juxtaposed to the locus control region (beta-LCR) far upstream of the globin genes [2].
 

High impact information on hbbe1

 

Biological context of hbbe1

  • Molecular phylogenetic analysis showed that the embryonic globins were highly homologous in amino acid sequence to the embryonic globins previously identified in rainbow trout and zebrafish, and that they formed a monophyletic group among the teleostean globin molecules [6].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of hbbe1

  • RT-PCR analysis showed that the embryonic globin mRNAs were intensely expressed in stage 30 and 38 embryos and in young fish 30 days after hatching [6].
