Examples of existing systems genetics reference populations and cell lines (where applicable) for in vitro applications.
Organism | Genetics | Panel | Derivation | System | Sources |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Human | Heterogeneous | HipSci | iPSC lines derived from ~150 rare disease and ~500 healthy donors | hiPSCs | [19-21] |
Heterogeneous | iPSCORE | hiPSC lines derived from ~220 donors including matched familial and twin lines | hiPSCs | [10] | |
Heterogeneous | Lymphoblastoid cell lines | Derived from peripheral blood of donor populations [e.g. 1,000 Genomes, HapMap Projects, NHGRI Human Genetics Cell Repository] | LCLs | [103], Coriell Cell Repository | |
Mouse | Inbred strains | Hybrid mouse diversity panel (HMDP), Mouse Phenome Panel | Collections of diverse and well characterized inbred strains | MEFs, limited iPSCs, limited mESCs | [12, 58, 104, 105], The Jackson Laboratory |
RI & RI advanced intercross | BXD | Strains developed by crossing C57BL/6J and DBA/2J mice | Ex vivo only to date | [106, 107] | |
RI | Collaborative Cross (CC) | Highly diverse strains derived from an eight-way cross of A/J, C57BL/6J, 129S1/SvImJ, NOD/ShiLtJ, NZO/HlLtJ, CAST/EiJ, PWK/PhJ, and WSB/EiJ mice | Ex vivo, limited mESCs, MEFs | [13, 108, 109] | |
Outbred | Diversity Outbred (DO) | Panel developed by random outcross matings of 160 CC mice and maintained by random matings that avoid sibling crosses | Ex vivo, mESCs | [110], Predictive Biology | |
Saccharom yces cerevisiae | RI | SGRP-4X | Panel developed from a four-way cross and then intercrossing for 12 generations | Whole organism | [34] |
Outbred | 18F12 | Two populations developed from 18 genetically diverse founder strains | Whole organism | [33] |
