Gene description: beta-globin hypersensitive site-embryonic 1
Gene type: biological region
This genomic region represents a DNase I hypersensitive site that is located in the embryonic gene region of the beta-globin gene cluster, between the epsilon (HBE1) and G-gamma (HBG2) genes. The orthologous hypersensitive site in mouse functions as an embryonic stage-specific enhancer in erythroid cells, and is necessary for active histone acetylation patterns in the embryonic domain.
