Focuses on articles relevant to mouse chemical mutagenesis. This book provides an overview of the history of the Human Genome Project and use of the mouse as the primary organism for the functional annotation of the mammalian genome. It analyzes data on DNA damage after chemical treatment; summarizes the power of allelic series; and more.

Once considered merely `selfish' or `parasitic' DNA, transposable elements are today recognized as being of major biological significance. The topics of presentations ranged from how the elements themselves have evolved to the impact transposable elements have had on the evolution of their host genomes.
