Description
http://mgc.nci.nih.gov Provides a list of genes and libraries, as well as information on library construction, vectors, and distribution resources for human, mouse, and rat.
http://xgc.nci.nih.gov As above, but the Xenopus laevis and X. tropicalis.
http://zgc.nci.nih.gov As above, but for Danio rerio.
http://image.llnl.gov Provides information on cDNA clones from the MGC, XGC, and ZGC projects, including library and vector details, clone queries, links to full-ORF clone data files, and information on obtaining clones.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=unigene An experimental system for partitioning GenBank sequences into nonredundant sets of gene-oriented clusters for many organisms, updated periodically. In MGC, genes are defined on the basis of UniGene clustering.
http://genome.ucsc.edu/
A genome browser that includes the MGC clones as part of their visualization options.
