I.M.A.G.E. Consortium cDNA Clones
Image Consortium
The I.M.A.G.E. consortium
make high quality, arrayed cDNA libraries available to the
community. Each clone has been given a unique I.M.A.G.E. ID
to facilitate reference. The sequence, mapping and expression
data has been placed in the public domain. These clones are
available free of any royalties and are available to anyone
agreeing with their guidelines. Lennon et al. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=PubMed&cmd=Retrieve&list_uids=96224170&dopt=Citation
Mammalian Gene Collection
The Mammalian Gene Collection
(MGC) is an NIH initiative to generate full-length cDNA resources.
Geneservice Ltd is now able to supply these full-length cDNA
clones. Click here for more information.
Image Consortium SP clones
Due to the high levels of redundancy in the human and mouse
MGC collections, clones from those species arrayed for 5'
sequencing since October 2002 (production plates LLAM, LLCM,
and LLKM) will no longer be routinely available. Please note
the following changes, effective October 2002:
- All new human and mouse MGC clones have an 8-digit IMAGE identifier
to distinguish them from clones arrayed prior to this date,
which have 5, 6, or 7 digit identifiers.
- Only human and mouse clones sent out for full-insert sequencing
are available from all IMAGE distributors on a routine basis
(as before). To see if a particular clone is included in
the completely sequenced set, please check ftp://image.llnl.gov/image/outgoing/ND_available_clones.txt.
- Human and mouse MGC clones not sent out for full-insert
sequencing and which are non-redundant (one whose sequence
is unique, i.e. no other clone from the same species contains
an identical sequence) can still be ordered directly from
the IMAGE distributors, but will require additional processing
time.
If your clone is part of the full-length set, Geneservice
will automatically consider it as a normal clone. However if
your clone is not part of the full lenght set,
Geneservice Ltd will order it for you for our normal clone prices
plus an Admin charge of GBP 30 per clones. Please be aware
that due to the increased complexity in checking and eventually
getting these clones, it will take a minimum of 3 weeks for
an order to be processed.
