Intergenic transcription, cell-cycle and the developmentally regulated epigenetic profile of the human beta-globin locus.

Several lines of evidence have established strong links between transcriptional activity and specific post-translation modifications of histones. Here we show using RNA FISH that in erythroid cells, intergenic transcription in the human beta-globin locus occurs over a region of greater than 250 kb i...
