Mammalian Gene Collection (MGC)

Description:
MGC is a trans-NIH Institute effort to generate a representative full-length clone for all human and mouse genes, and a finite number of rat genes, all of which are available to the research community. The MGC project entails:

  • Production of cDNA libraries
  • Sequencing clones at their 5' ends
  • Selection of potential full-length clones for full-length insert sequencing
  • Development of analytical tools
  • PCR-rescue of selected genes
  • In-vitro synthesis of genes not obtained through the methods outlined above
