Text of Personal Communication	From rd120@XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Tue Jun 25 14:29:55 1996 From: Rachel Drysdale (Genetics) <rd120@XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX> Date: Tue, 25 Jun 96 14:29:49 BST To: bio_cals@XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Subject: helping FlyBase Cc: rd120@XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Content-Length: 1238 Hi Allen, I have a question about a marked balancer that you published in 1993. It is the y⁺ CyO chromosome published in Timmons et al., 1993, Dev. Biol. 158(2): 364--379. It was said to have been constructed by Elizabeth Woodhouse (Materials and Methods, bottom of page 365). Has this element been previously published? If so, can you tell me which y⁺ construct was used? We have records for many y⁺ constructs in FlyBase so its possible that we already have an entry for it, and I would like to link this balancer to the correct construct, if at all possible. If it is one that Elizabeth made herself, if you could let me know a couple of details, such as size of yellow genomic DNA fragment, and transformation vector, then that would be wonderful. many thanks for your help, with best wishes, Rachel.

The insert we started with was on an otherwise unmarked 2nd chromosome. I am afraid that I do not know the details of the construct. We have subsequently transposed the same insert onto a TM3 chromosome that is marked with Ser and e but not Sb. The y+ has been completely stable on both balancers.
