Abstract

The number of RNA molecules coding the sequences of α- and β-globin in different nuclear and cytoplasmic RNA fractions is culculated for erythroblasts and reticulocytes. The main changes in globin genes regulation of expression during therminal differentiation of erythroid cells of pigeon are shown to occur at the level of pre-mRNA processing.
