Caenorhabditis elegans Genomic Resources
Caenorhabditis Genetics Center
- The CGC acquires, maintains and distributes genetic stocks
of Caenorhabditis elegans for use by investigators initiating or
continuing research on this nematode. The CGC's collection of more
than 2000 strains includes one allele of each mapped gene, all
available chromosome rearrangements, and selected multiply mutant
stocks for genetic mapping. Requests for strains should include a
brief statement of the research or training activity for which the
stocks are intended. Recipients are asked to acknowledge the CGC,
which is supported by NIH's National Center for Research Resources,
in publications resulting from use of the strains and to provide
the CGC with reprints of those publications. The CGC also provides
information about C. elegans, largely through the publication and
distribution of a newsletter, the Worm Breeder's Gazette.
A Caenorhabditis elegans
DataBase - C. elegans Genome Database - Containing data from the Caenorhabditis
Genetics Center (funded by the NIH National Center for Research Resources),
the C. elegans genome project (funded by the MRC and NIH), and the worm
community. Contacts: Mary O'Callaghan (moc@mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk) and Richard
Durbin
Caenorhabditis elegans WWW
Server at UTSW - This server is the storehouse for C. elegans information on the
internet. Included are job postings, FAQs, and genetic information all
related to C. elegans research.
