EMMA is a non-profit repository for the collection, archiving (via cryopreservation) and distribution of relevant mutant strains essential for basic biomedical research. For more information, please visit the website:

• European Mouse Mutant Archive (EMMA)

If you have questions on archiving or retrieving a mouse mutant line please contact Dr. Michael Hagn or Dr. Susan Marschall.

The Federation of International Mouse Resources (FIMRe) is a collaborating group of mouse repository and resource centers worldwide whose collective goal is to archive and provide strains of mice as cryopreserved embryos and gametes, ES cell lines, and live breeding stock to the research community. For more information, please visit the website:

• Federation of International Mouse Resources (FIMRe)

Gene driven ENU mutagenesis: Sperm and genomic DNA archive from 16.800 ENU mutagenized F1 animals. If you are interested to screen this resource for mutations in your favorite gene, please contact Dr. Sibylle Wagner.

If you are interested in the Munich ENU Mutagenesis Project go to the groups' website:

• Munich ENU Mutagenesis Project (MEP)

Phenotype driven ENU mutagenesis: Mapped ENU mutant lines with a mutant phenotype are accessible for the scientific community. You may download a list of mapped ENU mutant alleles here:

• List of mapped ENU mutants

Phenotype your mouse mutants: The GMC offers a large scale standardised and comprehensive phenotypic analysis of mouse mutants from various sources (transgenes, knockout mice, mutants from mutagenesis screens like ENU).

Mouse mutants are examined using a broad standardised phenotypic check-up with more than 550 parameters. For more information on the German Mouse Clinic, please visit the website:

• German Mouse Clinic (GMC)

If you are interested in phenotyping your mouse mutant line, please contact Dr. Valérie Gailus-Durner.

The GAC offers state-of-the-art technologies in several platforms including genotyping, DNA sequencing (both Sanger and Next Generation Sequencing), transcriptomics, and metabolomics. The technologies are universal for studies in a wide range of species including human, animal models, plants and bacteria. For more information, please visit the website:

• Genome Analysis Center (GAC)

If you are interested to use services and infrastructure of the GAC, please contact Prof. Dr. Jerzy Adamski.

Infrafrontier Project (2008-2012) is an EU-funded initiative with the aim to implement a sustainably financed pan-European research infrastructure that provides capacities and open access for the systemic phenotyping, archiving and distribution of mouse models to the biomedical research community.
