Raw experimental data
The ‘experiment’ data core contains raw measurements collected on individual specimens. As described in the documentation on mouse phenotyping, IMPC experiments are organized in pipelines, procedures, and parameters. They are carried out on specimens with a traceable genotype and sex.
Some notable data fields available in the ‘experiment’ core are in the table below.
| Field name | Description |
|---|---|
| gene_symbol | Mouse gene identifier in symbol format, e.g. Car4 |
| gene_accession_id | Mouse gene identifier in MGI id format, e.g. MGI:1096574 |
| pipeline_stable_id | Identifier of IMPRESS pipeline |
| procedure_stable_id | Identifier of phenotyping procedure |
| allele_accession_id | Allele stable identifier |
| zygosity | Zygosity of the mutant specimens |
| sex | Sex of the mutant specimens |
| weight | Weight of specimen |
| parameter_stable_id | Identifier for phenotyping procedure |
| data_point | Measured value |
Note. – Phenotyping related identifiers can be found in IMPRESS.
Several other fields are also available; a complete list of available parameters is available here
