Accessing Gene Trap ES Cell Lines
NorCOMM's large and growing archive of ES cells is publicly available on a cost-recovery basis through our central repository, the Canadian Mouse Mutant Repository (CMMR). Please click on the following links to view databases of genes available through NorCOMM and its international IGTC affiliates. For more information, please contact Carolyn Ashley at the Mammalian Functional Genomics Centre (MFGC).
- IGTC provides a one stop web site for all gene trap cell lines:
