CAENORHABDITIS GENETICS CENTER

这份合同的目标是建立一个线虫遗传病 中心(CGC)，获取和分布C. 线虫和相关线虫物种，以确定这些菌株的特征，并 以线虫为模型系统促进研究。预计CGC将 以线虫为模型为研究人员提供遗传资源 在生物学研究中。CGC还收到出版物的重印和 数据(原始的和分析的)，存储这些材料，验证遗传状态 和/或科学准确性，并分发突变株书目和 向科学家个人和科学公众提供遗传信息，网址为 大号的。本合同要求承包商执行这些活动 为期五年。政府的主要目标是 通过CGC的运作延续线虫资源，其中 获得、维护和分发线虫C. 用于生物/生物医学研究的雅致。

The objectives of this contract are to establish a Caenorhabditis Genetics Center (CGC) to acquire and distribute wild-type and mutant strains of C. elegans and related nematode species, to characterize these strains, and to stimulate research using C. elegans as a model system. The CGC is expected to provide a genetic resource to investigators using C. elegans as a model in biological research. The CGC also receives reprints of publications and data (raw and analyzed), stores these materials, verifies genetic status and/or scientific accuracy and distributes mutant strain bibliographic and genetic information to individual scientists an the scientific public at large. This contract requires that the Contractor perform these activities for a five year period. The principal objective of the Government is the continuation of the C. elegans resource through he operation of a CGC which acquires, maintains and distributes mutant strains of the nematode C. elegans for biological/biomedical research.
