ABSTRACT:
A method of expressing a non-prolactin gene in a transgenic animal, said expression occurring essentially only after birth and essentially only in the pituitary cells of said animal, which comprises (a) operably linking said gene to a prolactin promoter to form a transcriptional unit, and (b) introducing said unit into one or more cells of said animal.
