OMIM is a comprehensive database on human genes and genetic disorders and has been publicly available since 1987 [74]. OMIM is continually updated from the public literature and has links to other species databases. OMIM is the internet version of the multivolume book titled Mendelian Inheritance in Man by Victor McCusik [75] and is based at Johns Hopkins University. OMIM entries are classified using a standardized system of MIM numbers (denoting genetic classifications) and OMIM disorder codes (indicating loci associated genetic based diseases). OMIM concentrates on the genotype/phenotype relationship. OMIM entries contain text summaries of associated clinical features, molecular genetics, references, clinical synopses, phenotypic series the entry belongs to, and multiple graphic representations of the data [74]. Information and references on various animal models, including those in mice, that mimic or are confirmed orthologs is provided.
The Emouseatlas focuses on embryonic development of the laboratory mouse [76–81]. This website has four modules. EMA (Mouse Anatomy Atlas) covers mouse embryonic anatomy, ontology, and staging. Ehistology is an histology atlas of embryonic development that includes classic whole embryo images produced by Prof. Mathew Kaufman, used in his book Atlas of Mouse Development [82]. Emage covers mouse gene expression in embryos. Elearning provides tutorials to provide training on key principals of embryonic development.
