Abstract
On 17 July, the US National Center for Research Resources (NCRR, Bethesda, MD, USA) announced the official opening of a Mutant Mouse Regional Resource Centers (MMRRCs) network, which will allow the research community to have access to a centralized depository of all available strains – in excess of 3000 strains of mutant mice have so far been created by knockout or insertion of various genes. Researchers can access the network via a single entry point at the MMRRC website (www.mmrrc.org). This site currently provides information about submitting candidate strains and, later this year, will also provide detailed phenotypic and genotypic characterization. In addition, it will be possible to search the site for information about which strains are maintained, to order mice from the facilities and to register to receive strains that are being developed.
