The Collaborative Cross is a multiparental recombinant inbred panel derived from 129S1/SvImJ, A/J, C57BL/6J, NOD/ShiLtJ, NZO/HlLtJ, CAST/EiJ, PWK/PhJ, and WSB/EiJ. The panel provides a reproducible source of uniform genome-wide genetic variation for complex trait analysis and systems genetics.

The Collaborative Cross (CC) recombinant inbred mouse set is a genetic resource for high resolution mapping of complex traits derived from five classical inbred strains (129S1/SvImJ, A/J, C57BL/6J, NOD/ShiLtJ, and NZO/HlLtJ) and three wildtype-derived strains (CAST/EiJ, PWK/PhJ, WSB/EiJ). The panel provides a reproducible source of uniform genome-wide genetic variation for complex trait analysis and systems genetics and is a source of new models of human disease. For additional information on the CC mouse strains, please see the Collaborative Cross Web Site maintained at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.
Eight founder inbred strains (129S1/SvImJ, A/J, C57BL/6J, NOD/ShiLtJ, NZO/HlLtJ, CAST/EiJ, PWK/PhJ, and WSB/EiJ) were used to generate F1 mice which were then distributed to three breeding sites, Oak Ridge National Laboratory (OR); Western Australian Institute for Medical Research/Geniad Ltd. (AU), and International Livestock Research Institute, Kenya (IL). The U.S. population has since moved to the University of North Carolina (UNC) and the Kenyan population to Tel Aviv University (TAU). To generate the set, three generations of matings were performed to incorporate genomic contributions from each of the founder strains (‘funnel breedings’) followed by extensive inbreeding. A subset of the IL and AU lines were imported into the Systems genetics Core Facility (SGCF) at UNC where they were inbred until the strains were ready for distribution. A portion of the strains at the SGCF at UNC including lines originating from OR, IL and AU were imported to The Jackson Laboratory and are maintained via sibling mating.
Currently there are no related genes or alleles for this strain.
Mice from the Collaborative Cross are recombinant inbreds and maintained by sibling mating.

The Jackson Laboratory has rigorous genetic quality control and mutant gene genotyping programs to ensure the genetic background of JAX® Mice strains as well as the genotypes of strains with identified molecular mutations. JAX® Mice strains are only made available to researchers after meeting our standards. However, the phenotype of each strain may not be fully characterized and/or captured in the strain data sheets. Therefore, we cannot guarantee a strain's phenotype will meet all expectations. To ensure that JAX® Mice will meet the needs of individual research projects or when requesting a strain that is new to your research, we suggest ordering and performing tests on a small number of mice to determine suitability for your particular project. We do not guarantee breeding performance and therefore suggest that investigators order more than one breeding pair to avoid delays in their research.
