A step towards annotating the mouse genome is to use forward genetics in phenotype-driven screens to saturate the genome with mutations. The purpose of this article is to highlight the new projects in North America that are focused on isolating mouse mutations after ENU mutagenesis and phenotype screening.
Keywords: balancer chromosomes; Human Genome Project; Mouse Genome Project; mouse mutagenesis; phenotype screens
