Abstract
An open-access World Wide Web application has been developed which enables the cross-linking of anatomical data on the phenotypic manifestations of human and mouse malformation syndromes to data on gene function and/or expression patterns in the mouse GXD database. Ultimately, the system has been designed to assist biologists in the process of discovering hitherto unidentified malformation genes. More specifically, it facilitates search from the phenotypic level. The application and further information is available at http://genetics.ich.ucl.ac.uk/linksearchtool.
