Abstract:

Mouse Developmental and Metabolic Phenotype Repository (MDMPR) is an open access, real-time database which dedicates to share mouse resources and phenotype data. MDMPR is supported by the National Key Research and Development Project “Establishment of Mouse Developmental and Metabolic Phenotype Repository” within the Key Project of “Developmental Programming and Its Metabolic Regulation” from the Ministry of Science and Technology of the People’s Republic of China’s program. In the next 5 years, MDMPR will create 500 mutant mouse models related to development and metabolism, perform standard phenotyping analysis, and establish a phenotype database. MDMPR is a combination of resources and data repository, has several sub-systems, including the ES cell database, the project management system, the breeding management system, the sperm bank management system and the phenotyping database. These systems digitalize all data and ensure their authenticity in real-time. Besides the gradual increase of data during the project, MDMPR will also integrate other resources, such as human KO ES cell database, STRING database, database of Core Transcriptional Regulatory Circuitries and Enhancer-Indel database. MDMPR is anticipated to contribute to various areas of developmental and metabolic research to investigators through more convenient accesses to the resources and data in one-stop manner, thereby accelerating the research processes and ultimately serving the medical causes of human health.

Key words: Mouse Development and Metabolic Phenotype Repository, resource repository, open-access sharing platform
