Abstract
The present invention to a method for expressing an exogenous gene specifically in cells of the retinal pigment epithelium of a primate, this method comprising the step of delivering an isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising, or consisting of, the nucleic acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, or consisting of a nucleic acid sequence of at least 400 bp having at least 80% overall identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, to cells of the retinal pigment epithelium of the primate, wherein this isolated nucleic acid molecule specifically leads to the expression of an exogenous gene in cells of the retinal pigment epithelium of primates when a nucleic acid sequence coding for the exogenous gene is operatively linked to this isolated nucleic acid molecule.
