|  Mouse strains for freeze preservation
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------

  Since enough number of embryos has been preserved, live mice of these
strains will be closed soon. It will take more than 3 months to recover
live mice from frozen stock. Please let us know as soon as possible, if
you plan to use the mice and request them alive.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------

  The search software for the genome database from RIKEN GSC has been
opened in RIKEN web site since Nov 2006. The tutorial to search
candidate genes in positional cloning is available now.
