    GATA2 Discovered
    Dr. Bresnick and his team discovers GATA2 and "hot spots," called GATA switch sites where GATA1 and GATA2 undergo special activity.

  • "Research indicates that downstream genes are impacted when the switch site is altered, leading to abnormal development of the adult blood system." - Dr. Emery Bresnick

  • scientists were testing +9.5 GATA2 in mice and knocked out the switch site, which caused the embryos to die within 14 days.
