Gamma-globin vectors

Name Author and year Main characteristics
d432βAγ Persons 2003 - High variation depending on integration region and vector copy number
mLARβΔγV5 (V5) Hanawa 2004 - Larger LCR reduced position effects and improved expression
G9 Samakoglu 2006 - Includes shRNA against sickle β-globin
- Test only in vitro on MEL and HeLa cells stably expression sickle beta globin
V5m3 Pestina 2009 - 3′UTR of beta-globin corrected BERK SCA model
V5m3-400 Wilber 2011 - Added 400 bp core of cHS4 insulator
GGHI Papanikolaou 2012 - No LCR elements, but instead contains a gamma-globin promoter with a −117 point mutation associated with HPFH, the HS40 enhancer from the alpha-globin locus, the HPFH-2 enhancer, and the cHS4 insulator
- Only mild HbF production
