NF-E2 binding sites, located in distant regulatory sequences, may be
important for high level - and -globin gene expression. Surprisingly, targeted disruption of each subunit of NF-E2 has either
little or no effect on erythroid maturation in mice. For p18 NF-E2,
this lack of effect is due, at least in part, to the presence of
redundant proteins. For p45 NF-E2, one possibility is that
NF-E2-related factors, Nrf-1 or Nrf-2, activate globin gene expression
in the absence of NF-E2. To test this hypothesis for Nrf-2, we
disrupted the Nrf-2 gene by homologous recombination. Nrf-2-deficient
mice had no detectable hematopoietic defect. In addition, no evidence
was found for reciprocal upregulation of NF-E2 or Nrf-2 protein in
fetal liver cells deficient for either factor. Fetal liver cells
deficient for both NF-E2 and Nrf-2 expressed normal levels of - and
-globin. Mature mice with combined deficiency of NF-E2 and Nrf-2 did
not exhibit a defect in erythroid maturation beyond that seen with loss
of NF-E2 alone. Thus, the presence of a mild erythroid defect in
NF-E2-deficient mice is not the result of compensation by Nrf-2.
