The National Institute on Aging is making a catalog of mouse genes expressed in embryonic and adult stem cells, and early embryos, representing approximately 39000 unique transcripts. The cDNA libraries, enriched in full-length clones, were condensed into the NIA 15 and 7.4K clone sets. These libraries are freely distributed to the research community, providing a standard platform for expression studies using microarrays. They are important tools for studying mammalian development and stem cell biology.
