Abstract : Development of periodontal ligament(PDL) occurred as a series of events that requires temporal and spatial expression of numerous genes regulated differentiation of dental follicle(DF) cells. Nevertheless the genes required for PDL development have not been identified yet. To solve this problem, we used in silico approach with a human PDL database of expressed sequence tags(ESTs) named "periome" database. ESTs were obtained by partially sequencing of 5'end of 10,000 cDNA clones from human PDL cDNA library, and identified 4,384 unique EST clusters. 617 EST clusters appearing more than 3 times were collected, and classified by functional annotation to produce periome database. From periome database, we screened DF specific EST clusters by in situ hybridization. The result showed that SPARC like 1, Nidogen 1, Spondin 1 specifically expressed in DF. From these findings, periome database was successfully established, and this database provides a transcriptome resource fer analyzing gene clusters involved in PDL development.
