CAENORHABDITIS GENETICS CENTER

本合同的目的是建立一个隐杆线虫遗传学 中心（CGC）获得和分发野生型和突变株C。 线虫和相关线虫物种，以表征这些菌株，并 使用C. elegans作为一个模型系统。 CGC预计 为研究人员提供一个利用C.作为一种模式的优雅 在生物学研究中。 总理事会还收到出版物的重印本， 数据（原始和分析），存储这些材料，验证遗传状态 和/或科学的准确性，并分发突变株书目和 遗传信息提供给科学家个人和科学公众， 大. 本合同要求承包商开展这些活动 为期五年。 政府的主要目标是 C的延续。通过一个CGC的运作， 获得、保持和分发线虫C的突变株。 用于生物/生物医学研究。

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.
