EuroPhenome: a repository for high-throughput mouse phenotyping data.

Nucleic acids research | 2010

The broad aim of biomedical science in the postgenomic era is to link genomic and phenotype information to allow deeper understanding of the processes leading from genomic changes to altered phenotype and disease. The EuroPhenome project (http://www.EuroPhenome.org) is a comprehensive resource for raw and annotated high-throughput phenotyping data arising from projects such as EUMODIC. EUMODIC is gathering data from the EMPReSSslim pipeline (http://www.empress.har.mrc.ac.uk/) which is performed on inbred mouse strains and knock-out lines arising from the EUCOMM project. The EuroPhenome interface allows the user to access the data via the phenotype or genotype. It also allows the user to access the data in a variety of ways, including graphical display, statistical analysis and access to the raw data via web services. The raw phenotyping data captured in EuroPhenome is annotated by an annotation pipeline which automatically identifies statistically different mutants from the appropriate baseline and assigns ontology terms for that specific test. Mutant phenotypes can be quickly identified using two EuroPhenome tools: PhenoMap, a graphical representation of statistically relevant phenotypes, and mining for a mutant using ontology terms. To assist with data definition and cross-database comparisons, phenotype data is annotated using combinations of terms from biological ontologies.

This is a list of tools and resources that we have found mentioned in this publication.


Texas A and M Institute for Genomic Medicine (tool)

RRID:SCR_001615

Resource for any researcher looking to obtain knockout mice and embryonic stem (ES) cells quickly and with favorable intellectual property (IP) terms. Our resources include the world’s largest gene trap library of ES cells in the C57BL/6N mouse strain and a constantly expanding repository of cryopreserved germplasm of knockout lines. TIGM provides both ES cell clones and mice as well as other transgenic core services including CRISPR/Cas9-based genome modifications within the Texas A&M system and to the public and private international research community.

European Mouse Phenotyping Resource of Standardised Screens (tool)

RRID:SCR_003087

Database of validated Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for screens to determine the phenotype of a mouse, developed by the EUMORPHIA consortium. The SOP's cover all of the main body systems including: clinical chemistry, hormonal and metabolic systems, cardiovascular, allergy and infection, renal function, sensory function, neurological and behavioral function, cancer, bone and cartilage, and respiratory function. In addition, there are generic SOPs in histology, necropsy, pathology and gene expression. EMPReSS is a platform of individual tests. These can be performed as individual tests or grouped together in sequences, recommended in the EMPReSS database, to give more information on particular phenotype. Quick List of Current Pipelines: * EUMODIC Pipeline 1 * EUMODIC Pipeline 2 * GMC Pipeline * MGP Pipeline * Additional Tests * EUMODIC Pipeline 3

Knockout Mouse Project (tool)

RRID:SCR_005571

Project is providing critical tools for understanding gene function and genetic causes of human diseases. Project KOMP is focused on generating targeted knockout mutations in mouse ES cells. Second phase, KOMP2, relies upon successful generation of strains of knockout mice from these ES cells. Information from JAX about their contributions to KOMP project.

International Knockout Mouse Consortium (tool)

RRID:SCR_005574

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.
