IKMC -- International Knockout Mouse Consortium web portal

URL:
http://www.knockoutmouse.org/
What you can do:
Find information about mutated mouse genes.
Highlights:
  • IKMC aims to mutate all protein-coding genes in the mouse using a combination of gene targeting and gene trapping in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells and to make the generated resources readily available to the research community.
  • The IKMC database and web portal (www.knockoutmouse.org) serves as the central public web site for IKMC data and facilitates the coordination and prioritization of work within the consortium.
  • Researchers can access up-to-date information on IKMC knockout vectors, ES cells and mice for specific genes, and follow links to the respective repositories from which corresponding IKMC products can be ordered.
  • Researchers can also use the web site to nominate genes for targeting, or to indicate that targeting of a gene should receive high priority.
  • The IKMC database provides data to, and features extensive interconnections with, other community databases.
