The Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man, commonly abbreviated as OMIM, is a comprehensive catalog of human genes and genetic phenotypes that have been linked to specific traits and disorders. It is maintained by the McKusick-Nathans Institute of Genetic Medicine, Johns Hopkins University, and the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).

The entries in OMIM are organized by a unique six-digit number. Genes are typically assigned numbers in
