Abstract

 Modulation of gene expression in mouse thymic epithelium upon culture in the presence of thymocytes (coculture) was studied by comparison of hybridization signatures on a set of nearly 5000 mouse thymus cDNA clones. Forty-nine differentially expressed clones (usually down-regulated in coculture) were characterized by tag sequencing. Many of them corresponded to entities that had not been described previously in the mouse, and were further characterized by genome mapping. This set of genes appears to be involved in growth regulation and differentiation within the thymus.
