Generate, archive, and distribute world-wide up to 12.000 conditional mutations across the mouse genome in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells and Establish a limited number of mouse mutants from this resource. EUCOMM contributes the largest fraction of conditionally trapped and targeted genes in mouse C57BL/6N embryonic stem (ES) cells to the IKMC. EUCOMM vectors, mutant ES cells and mutant mice are distributed worldwide, enabling functional genomics research in a standardized and cost-effective manner by a much wider biomedical research community than has been possible previously. EUCOMM mutant ES cells and vectors can be obtained from the European Mouse Mutant Cell Repository (EuMMCR). EUCOMM mutant mice are archived and distributed by the European Mouse Mutant Archive (EMMA). Mutagenesis Strategies * Conditional gene trapping - random approach for expressed genes * Conditional targeted trapping - directed approach, used for expressed genes * Conditional gene targeting - directed approach, used for non-expressed genes

Non-profit repository for the collection, archiving (via cryopreservation) and distribution of relevant mutant strains essential for basic biomedical research. Users may browse by strain, gene, phenotype, or human disease. Its primary objective is to establish and manage a unified repository for maintaining medically relevant mouse mutants and making them available to the scientific community. Therefore, EMMA archives mutant strains and distributes them to requesting researchers. EMMA also hosts courses in cryopreservation, to promote the use and dissemination of frozen embryos and spermatozoa. Dissemination of knowledge is further fostered by a dedicated resource database. Anybody who wants their mutant mouse strains cryopreserved may deposit strains with EMMA. However depositors must be aware that these strains become freely available to other researchers after being deposited.With more than 8400 mutant mouse strains and asmall but increasing number of rat mutant strains available, EMMA is the primary mouse repository in Europe and the third largest non-profit repository worldwide.

Open source software system for capturing, storing and analyzing raw phenotyping data from SOPs contained in EMPReSS, it provides access to raw and annotated mouse phenotyping data generated from primary pipelines such as EMPReSSlim and secondary procedures from specialist centers. Mutants of interest can be identified by searching the gene or the predicted phenotype. You can also access phenotype data from the EMPReSSlim Pipeline for inbred mouse strains. Initially EuroPhenome was developed within the EUMORPHIA programme to capture and store pilot phenotyping data obtained on four background strains (C57BL/6J, C3H/HeBFeJ, BALB/cByJ and 129/SvPas). EUMORPHIA (European Union Mouse Research for Public Health and Industrial Applications) was a large project comprising of 18 research centers in 8 European countries, with the main focus of the project being the development of novel approaches in phenotyping, mutagenesis and informatics to improve the characterization of mouse models for understanding human molecular physiology and pathology. The current version of EuroPhenome is capturing data from the EUMODIC project as well as the WTSI MGP, HMGU GMC pipeline and the CMHD. EUMODIC is undertaking a primary phenotype assessment of up to 500 mouse mutant lines derived from ES cells developed in the EUCOMM project as well as other lines. Lines showing an interesting phenotype will be subject to a more in depth assessment. EUMODIC is building upon the comprehensive database of standardized phenotyping protocols, called EMPReSS, developed by the EUMORPHIA project. EUMODIC has developed a selection of these screens, called EMPReSSslim, to enable comprehensive, high throughput, primary phenotyping of large numbers of mice. Phenovariants are annotated using a automated pipeline, which assigns a MP term if the mutant data is statistically different to the baseline data. This data is shown in the Phenomap and the mine for a mutant tool. Please note that a statistically significant result and the subsequent MP annotation does not necessarily mean a true phenovariant. There are other factors that could cause this result that have not been accounted for in the analysis. It is the responsibility of the user to download the data and use their expert knowledge or further analysis to decide whether they agree or not. EuroPhenome is primarily based in the bioinformatics group at MRC Harwell. The development of EuroPhenome is in collaboration with the Helmholtz Zentrum Munchen, Germany, the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, UK and the Institut Clinique de la Souris, France.

Database of the international consortium working together to mutate all protein-coding genes in the mouse using a combination of gene trapping and gene targeting in C57BL/6 mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. Detailed information on targeted genes is available. The IKMC includes the following programs: * Knockout Mouse Project (KOMP) (USA) ** CSD, a collaborative team at the Children''''s Hospital Oakland Research Institute (CHORI), the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute and the University of California at Davis School of Veterinary Medicine , led by Pieter deJong, Ph.D., CHORI, along with K. C. Kent Lloyd, D.V.M., Ph.D., UC Davis; and Allan Bradley, Ph.D. FRS, and William Skarnes, Ph.D., at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute. ** Regeneron, a team at the VelociGene division of Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc., led by David Valenzuela, Ph.D. and George D. Yancopoulos, M.D., Ph.D. * European Conditional Mouse Mutagenesis Program (EUCOMM) (Europe) * North American Conditional Mouse Mutagenesis Project (NorCOMM) (Canada) * Texas A&M Institute for Genomic Medicine (TIGM) (USA) Products (vectors, mice, ES cell lines) may be ordered from the above programs.

https://www.eummcr.info/

Embryonic stem cell distribution unit that distributes material arising within European Conditional Mouse Mutagenesis Program consortium, currently targeting vectors and ES cells. Upon user request EUCOMM grow targeting vectors from glycerol stocks and prepare vector DNA. Identity of vector is verified by restriction mapping. Upon user request EUCOMM thaw, expand and re-freeze several aliquots of desired ES cell clone. Standard controls include PCR based assay. Upon additional request EuMMCR unit develops genotyping PCR, which can be used to genotype chimeric mice that may be generated using those ES cell clones.
