Mice were infused with 5.0e5 to 2.0e6 transduced CD34+ HPCs. The average VCN and the frequency of BFU-E colonies positive for the vector were determined as well as the level of β/α chain expression in the BFU-Es derived from the BM of engrafted mice (BFU-E/BM β/α** expression was measured in 2 independent pools of transduced BFU-Es and averaged. Untransduced pool 1, n = 30; transduced with TNS9.3.55 pool 1, n = 32; average VCN = 1.2. Untransduced pool 2, n = 30; transduced with TNS9.3.55 pool 2, n = 30; average VCN = 1.1. Experiments 4 and 5 were conducted with TNS9.3.55-transduced CD34+ cells derived from validation 2 and validation 3, respectively. CFU-GM, granulocyte-macrophage CFU; ND, not done; +ve, positive.
