Subject: FlyBase query Dear Dr. Miklos, I am a curator working for FlyBase. I am currently curating a paper of yours : J. Neurogenetics 6: 133-151 (1990). (Miklos and de Couet). In the complementation map in Figure 1 (page 136) there is a gene symbol 'soz' (between fog and stn). I would be grateful if you could tell me the full name of this gene, and any other information about it such as whether it is known by any other synonym, as we do not have any information about this gene in FlyBase. I look forward to hearing from you, Gillian Millburn \-------------------------------------------------------------- Gillian Millburn. FlyBase (Cambridge), \-------------------------------------------------------------- > Subject: Re: FlyBase query sozzled soz Dear Ms Millburn, The soz notation was given to the EA41 lethal complementation group which lies between fog and stoned ( Perrimon et al 1990; Genetics, 121,313-331). We called it sozzled because the escapers were unsteady on their feet. I hope this has not caused too much of a trauma. Please let me know how you wish to proceed. yours sincerely george.L.gabor miklos George L. Gabor Miklos | The Neurosciences Institute | 10640 John Jay Hopkins Drive San Diego, CA 92121
