摘要

During development, human β-globin locus regulation undergoes two critical switches, the embryonic-to-fetal and fetal-to-adult hemoglobin switches. To define the role of the fetal Aγ-globin promoter in switching, human β-globin-YAC transgenic mice were produced with the Aγ-globin promoter replaced by the erythroid porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD) promoter (PBGDAγ-YAC). Activation of the stage-independent PBGDAγ-globin strikingly stimulated native Gγ-globin expression at the fetal and adult stages, identifying a fetal gene pair or bigenic cooperative mechanism. This impaired fetal silencing severely suppressed both δ- and β-globin expression in PBGDAγ-YAC mice from fetal to neonatal stages and altered kinetics and delayed switching of adult β-globin. This regulation evokes the two human globin switching patterns in the mouse. Both patterns of DNA demethylation and chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis correlated with gene activation and open chromatin. Locus control region (LCR) interactions detected by chromosome conformation capture revealed distinct spatial fetal and adult LCR bigenic subdomains. Since both intact fetal promoters are critical regulators of fetal silencing at the adult stage, we concluded that fetal genes are controlled as a bigenic subdomain rather than a gene-autonomous mechanism. Our study also provides evidence for LCR complex interaction with spatial fetal or adult bigenic functional subdomains as a niche for transcriptional activation and hemoglobin switching.
