The Gene Engineering Division has constructed a BAC library of the C57BL/6N(B6N) substrain and the RIKEN BioResource Center completed BAC end sequencing of B6N and register the sequence data with DDBJ in collaboration with the National Institute of Genetics under the Genome Information Upgrading Program of MEXT NBRP. The B6N Mouse BAC library consisted of 62,000 clones representing an estimated coverage of 2.6-fold haploid genome with 90% provability.
A new database, ‘Mouse BAC Brower’ is also available at the site of the National Institute of Genetics (http://analysis2.lab.nig.ac.jp/mouseBrowser/). This database provides information of genomic locations of the B6N Mouse BAC clones on a B6J’s genome sequence as well as the context of other features, such as genes. Using the database, researchers can be find BAC clones in silico with direct querying (ex. gene symbol, name of gene product, gene ID and so on).
