The deletion of the distal CCAAT box region of the A gamma-globin gene in black HPFH abolishes the binding of the erythroid specific protein NFE3 and of the CCAAT displacement protein.

Non-deletion Hereditary Persistence of Fetal Hemoglobin (HPFH) is characterized by great elevation of the synthesis, in adult age, of fetal hemoglobin (HbF), of either the A gamma or G gamma type. Strong genetic evidence indicates point mutations in the G gamma- or A gamma-globin promoter as respons...
