http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/20688955http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"An estimated 6% to 7% of the earth's population carries a mutation affecting red blood cell function. The β-thalassemias and sickle cell disease are the most common monogenic disorders caused by these mutations. Increased levels of γ-globin ameliorate the severity of these diseases because fetal hemoglobin (HbF; α2γ2) can effectively replace adult hemoglobin (HbA; α2β2) and counteract polymerization of sickle hemoglobin (HbS; α2β(S)2). Therefore, understanding the molecular mechanism of globin switching is of biologic and clinical importance. Here, we show that the recently identified chromatin factor Friend of Prmt1 (FOP) is a critical modulator of γ-globin gene expression. Knockdown of FOP in adult erythroid progenitors strongly induces HbF. Importantly, γ-globin expression can be elevated in cells from β-thalassemic patients by reducing FOP levels. These observations identify FOP as a novel therapeutic target in β-hemoglobinopathies."xsd:string
