The Dec. 2011 Mus musculus assembly (Genome Reference Consortium Mouse Build 38 (GCA_000001635.2)) was produced by the Mouse Genome Reference Consortium. For more information about this assembly, see GRCm38 in the NCBI Assembly database.
A genome position can be specified by the accession number of a sequenced genomic region, an mRNA or EST, a chromosomal coordinate range, or keywords from the GenBank description of an mRNA. The following list shows examples of valid position queries for the Mouse genome. See the User's Guide for more information.

Genome Reference Consortium GRCm38, which includes approximately 2.6 Gb of sequence, is considered to be "essentially complete". The assembly includes chromosomes 1-19, X, Y, M (mitochondrial DNA) and chr*_random (unlocalized) and chrUn_* (unplaced clone contigs). For information about the process used to assemble this version, see the GRC website. Note that the UCSC mm10 database contains only the reference strain C57BL/6J.
Bulk downloads of the sequence and annotation data are available via the Genome Browser FTP server or the Downloads page. The Mouse browser annotation tracks were generated by UCSC and collaborators worldwide. See the Credits page for a detailed list of the organizations and individuals who contributed to the success of this release.
