Differential gene expression during avian erythropoiesis: isolation of stage-specific sequences.
A method is described here that can be used to provide qualitative data on the expression of a wide number of genes in a variety of different tissues or cell types. This approach can further be utilized to enable tissue-specific or temporally regulated genes to be identified and isolated. The possibility of obtaining molecular probes for these types of genes should enable us to further our understanding of the molecular events underlying the process of differentiation.
