The MMRRC has been the nation’s preeminent public repository and distribution archive of mutant mouse models for 25 years. The Consortium, with support from NIH, facilitates biomedical research by identifying, acquiring, evaluating, characterizing, preserving, and distributing a variety of mutant mouse strains to investigators around the world. Since its inception, the MMRRC has fulfilled more than 20,000 orders from 13,651 scientists at 8,441 institutions worldwide. Today, the MMRRC maintains an archive of mice, cryopreserved embryos and sperm, embryonic stem-cell lines, and murine monoclonal antibodies for nearly 65,000 alleles. The Consortium also provides scientific consultation, technical assistance, genetic assays, microbiome analysis, analytical phenotyping, pathology, husbandry, breeding and colony management, and more.
