Term Information

Accession: GO:0048538
Name: thymus development
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: None
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the thymus over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The thymus is a symmetric bi-lobed organ involved primarily in the differentiation of immature to mature T cells, with unique vascular, nervous, epithelial, and lymphoid cell components. Source: ISBN:0781735149, GOC:add
Comment: Note that this term is reserved for annotation of gene products involved in the formation of the thymus itself, not for gene products involved in T cell differentiation in the thymus or elsewhere.
