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.

https://syllabus.med.unc.edu/courseware/embryo_images/

Tutorial that uses scanning electron micrographs (SEMs) as the primary resource to teach mammalian embryology. The 3-D like quality of the micrographs coupled with selected line drawings and minimal text allow relatively easy understanding of the complex morphological changes that occur in utero. Because early human embryos are not readily available and because embryogenesis is very similar across mammalian species, the majority of micrographs that are utilized in this tutorial are of mouse embryos. The remainder are human. This tutorial is divided into units that may be studied in any order. All of the images have a legend that indicates the age of the embryo. If it is a mouse embryo, the approximate equivalent human age is indicated. To minimize labeling, color-coding is widely used. To view the micrographs without color, the cursor may be placed on the image. The SEMs used in this tutorial are from the Kathleen K. Sulik collection. The line drawings have been used with permission from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins and are from the 6th and 7th editions of Langman''s Medical Embryology by T.W. Sadler.

http://www.stembase.ca

A publicly accessible database containing data on Affymetrix DNA microarray experiments, and Serial Analysis of Gene Expression, mostly on human and mouse stem cell samples and their derivatives to facilitate the discovery of gene functions relevant to stem cell control and differentiation. It has grown in both size and scope into a system with analysis tools that examine either the whole database at once, or slices of data, based on tissue type, cell type or gene of interest. There is currently more than 210 stem cell samples in 60 different experiments, with more being added regularly. The samples were originated by researchers of the Stem Cell Network and processed at the Core Facility of Stemcore Laboratories under the management of Ms. Pearl Campbell in the frame of the Stem Cell Genomics Project. Periodically, new expression data is submitted to the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) repository at the National Center for Biotechnological Information, in order to allow researchers to compare the data deposited in StemBase to a large amount of gene expression data sets. StemBase is different from GEO in both focus and scope. StemBase is concerned exclusively with stem cell related data. we are focused in Stem Cell research. We have made a significant effort to ensure the quality and consistency of the data included. This allows us to offer more specialized analysis tools related to Stem Cell data. GEO is intended as a large scale public archive. Deposition in a public repository such as GEO is required by most important scientific journals and it is advantageous for a further diffusion of the data since GEO is more broadly used than StemBase.

http://www.informatics.jax.org/expression.shtml

Community database that collects and integrates the gene expression information in MGI with a primary emphasis on endogenous gene expression during mouse development. The data in GXD are obtained from the literature, from individual laboratories, and from large-scale data providers. All data are annotated and reviewed by GXD curators. GXD stores and integrates different types of expression data (RNA in situ hybridization; Immunohistochemistry; in situ reporter (knock in); RT-PCR; Northern and Western blots; and RNase and Nuclease s1 protection assays) and makes these data freely available in formats appropriate for comprehensive analysis. There is particular emphasis on endogenous gene expression during mouse development. GXD also maintains an index of the literature examining gene expression in the embryonic mouse. It is comprehensive and up-to-date, containing all pertinent journal articles from 1993 to the present and articles from major developmental journals from 1990 to the present. GXD stores primary data from different types of expression assays and by integrating these data, as data accumulate, GXD provides increasingly complete information about the expression profiles of transcripts and proteins in different mouse strains and mutants. GXD describes expression patterns using an extensive, hierarchically-structured dictionary of anatomical terms. In this way, expression results from assays with differing spatial resolution are recorded in a standardized and integrated manner and expression patterns can be queried at different levels of detail. The records are complemented with digitized images of the original expression data. The Anatomical Dictionary for Mouse Development has been developed by our Edinburgh colleagues, as part of the joint Mouse Gene Expression Information Resource project. GXD places the gene expression data in the larger biological context by establishing and maintaining interconnections with many other resources. Integration with MGD enables a combined analysis of genotype, sequence, expression, and phenotype data. Links to PubMed, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), sequence databases, and databases from other species further enhance the utility of GXD. GXD accepts both published and unpublished data.

http://inparanoid.sbc.su.se/cgi-bin/index.cgi

Collection of pairwise comparisons between 100 whole genomes generated by a fully automatic method for finding orthologs and in-paralogs between TWO species. Ortholog clusters in the InParanoid are seeded with a two-way best pairwise match, after which an algorithm for adding in-paralogs is applied. The method bypasses multiple alignments and phylogenetic trees, which can be slow and error-prone steps in classical ortholog detection. Still, it robustly detects complex orthologous relationships and assigns confidence values for in-paralogs. The original data sets can be downloaded.

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.
