ABSTRACT:
A recombinant nucleic acid construct is presented in which a mouse uroplakin-II (UP-II) gene promoter is coupled to a heterologous gene of interest. When the resultant construct is introduced into a transgenic mouse, the UP-II promoter directs the expression of the heterologous gene in the urothelium of the said mouse.
