MouseBook -- Mouse Resources

What you can do:
Find information about mutant mouse lines.
Highlights:
  • The MouseBook databases and web portal provide access to information about mutant mouse lines held as live or cryopreserved stocks at MRC Harwell.
  • The MouseBook portal integrates curated information from the MRC Harwell stock resource, and other Harwell databases, with information from external data resources to provide value-added information above and beyond what is available through other routes such as International Mouse Stain Resource (IMSR).
  • MouseBook can be searched either using an intuitive Google style free text search or using the Mammalian Phenotype (MP) ontology tree structure.
  • Text searches can be on gene, allele, strain identifier (e.g. MGI ID) or phenotype term and are assisted by automatic recognition of term types and autocompletion of gene and allele names covered by the database.
  • Results are returned in a tabbed format providing categorized results identified from each of the catalogs in MouseBook.
  • Individual result lines from each catalog include information on gene, allele, chromosomal location and phenotype, and provide a simple click-through link to further information as well as ordering the strain.
