Description: THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on October 23, 2014. Consortium that generated a reference library of gene trap sequence tags (GTST) from insertional mutations generated in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. The gene trap database represents a repository of sequences produced in a large scale gene trap screen in mouse ES cells using various gene trapping vectors which are delivered either by electroporation or retroviral infections. A type of retroviral gene trap vector has been developed that can induce conditional mutations in most genes expressed in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. The vectors rely on directional site-specific recombination systems that can repair and re-induce gene trap mutations when activated in succession. After the gene traps are inserted into the mouse genome, genetic mutations can be produced at a particular time and place in somatic cells. In addition to their conditional features, the vectors create multipurpose alleles amenable to a wide range of post-insertional modifications. Here they have used these directional recombination vectors to assemble the largest library of ES cell lines with conditional mutations in single genes yet assembled, presently totaling 1,000 unique genes. The trapped ES cell lines, which can be ordered from the German Gene Trap Consortium, are freely available to the scientific community.
