Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-50176
Dear Monika,
We are currently curating the abstracts for the upcoming 46th
(San Diego) Annual Drosophila Research Conference, for FlyBase.
I am writing in connection with your abstract:
A putative <gb>1-3-galactosyltransferase encoded by twiggy is required for
growth and morphogenesis in Drosophila.
You mention a gene symbol that is new to FlyBase, tgy. Do you know
which of the Genome Project CG annotations your gene corresponds to?
All the CGs have corresponding gene records in FlyBase already and we
don't like to make duplicate records for what is actually the same gene
unless we can't avoid it. The CG symbols become synonyms when an
annotation is named with a more descriptive or functional name.
With best wishes,
Rachel.

Hi,
sorry for the delay. The gene twiggy corresponds to CG7440 in the
Flybase.
Sincerely,
Monika Rosen
