T he KOMP Repository is the official archive and distribution center for the Knockout Mouse Project (KOMP), a major 5-year trans-NIH initiative designed to generate null alleles in C57BL/6 embryonic stem (ES) cells for most genes not already available as knockout mice. Nearly 8500 genes are targeted for deletion, most in a conditional-ready format, by mutagenesis teams at "CSD" (Childrens Hospital of Oakland Research Institute, The Sanger Institute, and UC Davis) and at Regeneron, Inc. Here at the KOMP Repository at UC Davis and CHORI, you can obtain targeting vectors, ES cells, mice, and germplasm, as well as microinjection, genotyping, cryopreservation, breeding, and other services quickly and at reasonable cost to help you with your research project.

Event
Mouse Genetics & Genomics: Development & Disease Conference hosted by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory and the Wellcome Trust Conference Centre at the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus located in Hinxton, Cambridge, UK. Conference begins on Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009 at 3 p.m. and concludes on Sunday, September 6 after lunch. The specific goal of the conference is to bring together a diverse group of scientists studying various molecular and genetic aspects of mammalian development. The meeting is intended to provide a format for the exchange of ideas and information, to discuss the latest research findings and technical advances towards the study of mammalian development and disease. Abstract deadline: July 1, 2009. Organized by Kathryn Anderson, Haruhiko Koseki, Michael Shen and William Skarnes. .
