Resources from the I.M.A.G.E. Consortium and the Mammalian Gene Collection

imaGenes is a distributor of clone resources produced by the I.M.A.G.E. Consortium, which shares high-quality, arrayed cDNA libraries and places sequence, map, and expression data on the clones in these arrays into the public domain. All I.M.A.G.E clones are available free of any royalties, and may be used by anyone agreeing with the I.M.A.G.E. guidelines.
 

Search for Clones and Order

Clones can be searched and ordered directly using GenomeCubeā„¢. An overview of all libraries available at imaGenes is accessible through the Complete Library List.

MGC, XGC, ZGC Predicted Full-Length (IRAK, IRAL, IRAM)

These human, mouse, rat, zebrafish, Xenopus laevis and X. tropicalis clones have been computationally predicted to be full-length based on homology with known genes, and several other methods of prediction for novel genes. In 384-well format, the IRAK rearray contains ampicillin-resistant clones and the IRAL rearray contains chloramphenicol-resistant clones, and IRAM contains kanamycin-resistant clones. Each plate contains clones from multiple libraries, but from one species and one vector only. These clones are being sequence-verified and fully sequenced by the MGC Consortium. To access the full-length sequences, search Genbank (not dbEST) using the following format: "MGC:MGC_id" to return individual sequences or MGC [kywd] for all sequences.

 

Mammalian Gene Collection (MGC) Verified Full-Length Human (IRAT, IRAU)

This is a subset of the IRAK/IRAL MGC predicted full-length set; these clones have been sequence-verified to match the EST already in dbEST, and have been fully sequenced to high accuracy by the MGC Consortium (full-length sequences are submitted to the primate division of Genbank, NOT dbEST). This rearray is in 96-well format, with each plate containing clones from one species and vector only. Rearray names are IRAT (human clones, ampicillin-resistant vectors) and IRAU (human clones, chloramphenicol-resistant vectors. Periodic updates will be made as more full-length sequences are submitted. To access the full-length sequences, search Genbank (not dbEST) using the following format: "MGC:MGC_id" to return individual sequences or MGC [kywd] for all sequences.

 

Mammalian Gene Collection (MGC) Verified Full-Length Mouse (IRAV, IRAW)

This is a subset of the IRAK/IRAL MGC predicted full-length set; these clones have been sequence-verified to match the EST already in dbEST, and have been fully sequenced to high accuracy by the MGC Consortium (full-length sequences are submitted to the primate division of Genbank, NOT dbEST). This rearray is in 96-well format, with each plate containing clones from one species and vector only. Rearray names are IRAV (mouse clones, ampicillin-resistant vectors) and IRAW (mouse clones, chloramphenicol-resistant vectors). Periodic updates will be made as more full-length sequences are submitted. To access the full-length sequences, search Genbank (not dbEST) using the following format: "MGC:MGC_id" to return individual sequences or MGC [kywd] for all sequences.

 

Mammalian Gene Collection (MGC) Verified Full-Length Rat (IRBP, IRBQ)

This is a subset of the IRAK/IRAL MGC predicted full-length set; these clones have been sequence-verified to match the EST already in dbEST, and have been fully sequenced to high accuracy by the MGC Consortium (full-length sequences are submitted to the primate division of Genbank, NOT dbEST). This rearray is in 96-well format, with each plate containing clones from one species and vector only. Rearray names are IRBP (rat clones, ampicillin-resistant vectors) and IRBQ (rat clones, chloramphenicol resistant vectors). Periodic updates will be made as more full-length sequences are submitted. To access the full-length sequences, search Genbank (not dbEST) using the following format: "MGC:MGC_id" to return individual sequences or MGC [kywd] for all sequences.

 

XGC Verified Full-Length Xenopus (IRBG, IRBH, IRBN)

This is a subset of the IRAK/IRAL XGC predicted full-length set for X. laevis and X. tropicalis; these clones have been sequence-verified to match the EST already in dbEST, and have been fully sequenced to high accuracy by XGC (full-length sequences are submitted to the primate division of Genbank, NOT dbEST). This rearray is in 96-well format, with each plate containing clones from one species and vector only. Rearray names are IRBG (X. laevis, chloramphenicol-resistant vectors), IRBH (X. laevis, ampicillin resistant-vectors) and IRBN (X. tropicalis, ampicillin-resistant vectors). Periodic updates will be made as more full-length sequences are submitted. To access the full-length sequences, search Genbank (not dbEST) using the following format: "MGC:MGC_id" to return individual sequences or MGC [kywd] for all sequences.

 

ZGC Verified Full-Length Zebrafish (IRBO)

This is a subset of the IRAK/IRAL ZGC predicted full-length set for zebrafish; these clones have been sequence-verified to match the EST already in dbEST, and have been fully sequenced to high accuracy by ZGC (full-length sequences are submitted to the primate division of Genbank, NOT dbEST).

Human Genes - Lymphochip (IRAY, IRAZ, IRBA, IRBB)

This set of 2,500 known human genes (1,415 unique genes, 1,100 of them represented by two independent clones) has been rearrayed in 96-well format. Each plate contains one vector only. IRAY is a non-redundant rearray of ampicillin-resistant clones, IRAZ is a non-redundant rearray of chloramphenicol-resistant clones, IRBA is a non-redundant rearray of ampicillin-resistant clones that completely overlaps the genes represented in IRAY, and IRBB is a non-redundant rearray of chloramphenicol-resistant clones that completely overlaps the genes represented in IRAZ.

 

Human GPCR Genes (IRBF, IRBI)

The full open reading frames of individual GPCR genes have been PCR-amplified and cloned in 96-well format. Originally the rearray names were IRBF (ampicillin-resistant, from the Guthrie cDNA Resource Center) and IRBI (ampicillin-resistant, from the GPCR Consortium, but more recently clones from Guthrie and GPCR Consortium have been combined into single plates under the IRBI collection. The origin of each clone can still be tracked with the Guthrie clones originating from library NIH_MGC_146 and the GPCR Consortium clones originating from library NIH_MGC_145. For specific information, please refer to the appropriate IMAGE ftp-site.

 

Human Genes - Glioma-Related (IRAX)

A set of 5,500 mostly unique human ampicillin-resistant clones representing glioma-related genes (rearray name IRAX). Each plate contains one vector only except for plate 1 which contains a small number of clones from three different vectors. For specific information, please refer to the appropriate IMAGE ftp-site.

 

Mouse Genes - Lymphochip (IRAP)

A set of unique ampicillin-resistant clones, representing 13,000 mouse genes (rearray name IRAP. Sequence-verification is planned. Each plate contains one vector only. For specific information, please refer to the appropriate IMAGE ftp-site.

 

Mouse Pancreas Genes (IRBD, IRBE)

This is a set of 7,000 mouse genes. Rearray IRBD contains ampicillin-resistant clones, rearray IRBE contains kanamycin-resistant clones. For specific information, please refer to the appropriate IMAGE ftp-site.
