The range of expression in single-copy animals for each construct is listed as a percentage of Aγ-globin transcripts to endogenous mouse β-globin major transcripts on a per copy basis. Prom, promoter (either β or γ); βivs2, β-globin intron 2; β3′enh, β-globin 3′ enhancer; Δ, β-globin intron 2 present but containing a 372-bp AT-rich region deletion.
