A positive role for NLI/Ldb1 in long-range β-globin locus control region function
Open accessAbstract
Long-range interactions between distant regulatory elements, such as enhancers, and their target genes underlie the specificity of gene expression in many developmentally regulated gene families. NLI/Ldb1, a widely expressed nuclear factor, is a potential mediator of long-range interactions. Here, we show that NLI/Ldb1 and erythroid-binding partners GATA-1/SCL/LMO2 bind in vivo to the beta-globin locus control region (LCR). The C-terminal LIM interaction domain of NLI is required for formation of the complex on chromatin. Loss of the LIM domain converts NLI into a dominant-negative inhibitor of globin gene expression, and knockdown of NLI by using shRNA results in failure to activate beta-globin expression. Kinetic studies reveal that the NLI/GATA-1/SCL/LMO2 complex is detected at the beta-globin promoter coincident with RNA Pol II recruitment, beta-globin transcription, and chromatin loop formation during erythroid differentiation, providing evidence that NLI facilitates long-range gene activation.

Several TFs were required for looping between the LCR and the distal genes, including GATA-1, FOG-1, EKLF and NLI/Ldb1.
“Following the discovery of chromatin looping in the β-globin locus, it was ascertained that several TFs were required for looping between the LCR and the distal genes, including GATA-1, FOG-1, EKLF and NLI/Ldb1 [315–317].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
