   OMIMTM - Online Mendelian Inheritance in ManTM

Welcome to OMIM, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man. This database is a catalog of human genes and genetic disorders authored and edited by Dr. Victor A. McKusick and his colleagues at Johns Hopkins and elsewhere, and developed for the World Wide Web by NCBI, the National Center for Biotechnology Information. The database contains textual information and references. It also contains copious links to MEDLINE and sequence records in the Entrez system, and links to additional related resources at NCBI and elsewhere.

You can do a search by entering one or more terms in the text box above. Advanced search options are accessible via the Limits, Preview/Index, History, and Clipboard options in the grey bar beneath the text box. The OMIM help document provides additional information and examples of basic and advanced searches.

The links to the left provide further technical information, searching options, frequently asked questions (FAQ), and information on allied resources. To return to this page, click on the OMIM link in the black header bar or on the graphic at the top of any OMIM page.

NOTE: OMIM is intended for use primarily by physicians and other professionals concerned with genetic disorders, by genetics researchers, and by advanced students in science and medicine. While the OMIM database is open to the public, users seeking information about a personal medical or genetic condition are urged to consult with a qualified physician for diagnosis and for answers to personal questions.
