The KOMP2 Phase 3 project at UC Davis is producing and phenotyping knockout mice for
409
genes from now until mid-2027. This project is part of the International Mouse
Phenotyping Consortium (IMPC) which aims to define the function of all human orthologous
genes in the mouse genome.
Our focus is on genes with heretofore undescribed yet potentially important functional
roles in health and disease… the "dark genome."
Therefore, we invite you to nominate a gene for production and phenotyping. Please fill out
the very brief nomination form below.
Once we receive your nomination, we’ll determine whether it meets KOMP2 criteria (not
already done, human ortholog, etc).
If selected, we'll prioritize your gene for production and phenotyping, at no charge
to you.
If not accepted, you can request the UC Davis Mouse Biology Program to make and/or phenotype
it for you as a fee-for-service.
For additional details or to explore data on previously knocked-out lines, please visit the
IMPC website at https://www.mousephenotype.org.
You have successfully nominated your gene! Normally you should
receive a response within 48 hours after your nomination.
