The visual atlas of mouse development will be integrated with gene expression data. Unfortunately, only sample pages from the atlas and anatomical sketches from the Standard Anatomical Nomenclature Database are currently available to all users. Online databases are available to search for transgenic mouse strains. The search interface is easy to use, and the resource encourages researchers to submit published and unpublished data. BioMedNet's extensive Mouse Knockout and Mutation Database was originally created from extensive data published in Current Biology .
Access is by subscription only.
There are a large number of online mouse resources provided by individual researchers or research groups. For a comprehensive listing of mouse links for researchers, try the Mouse and Rat Research Home Page maintained by Eric Mercer at the California Institute of Technology. The collection is well organized and up to date and includes links to genome resources, suppliers, technical information, and conference announcements. An introductory section provides information on recent additions to the resource and personal commentary on the mouse genome projects. The systems described above are considered to be the major model organisms.
