EMMA archives mouse mutant resources by cryopreservation and makes them accessible to users of the German Mouse Clinic, members of the NGFN and to the biomedical research community at large. By providing its cryopreservation service EMMA ensures the long-term availability of mouse mutant resources and thereby facilitates the exploitation of the mouse mutants generated within the NGFN to their full extent. The German EMMA node is part of the EMMA network which is comprised of 16 partners from 13 countries that operate as the primary mouse repository in Europe under leadership of the German node. EMMA partners provide centralized access to a strongly growing collection of mouse mutants and associated data resources for the biomedical research community. In addition, EMMA generates germ-free (axenic) mice and offers excellent training opportunities in cryopreservation techniques. To date, 4319 mouse mutant lines were submitted to EMMA and a total of 4319 orders for EMMA resources were obtained. During the course of NGFN-Plus the German EMMA node cryopreserved 298 lines and a total of 336 orders from scientists worldwide were processed. EMMA received a total of 371 orders from German researchers which are among the most active users of the EMMA archive.
