Subject: ADRC: 055 Dear Katya and Deborah, I am writing in connection with your abstract for the upcoming Washington DC ADRC: 'Salivary gland formation: Regulation by SCR, EXD and the DPP signalling pathway.' You mention a gene that is new to FlyBase, sad. Unfortunately this symbol has already been taken for another gene, sad: shadow, however we can use Sad, in which case we should capitalise 'Sisters' in the full name. Do you have a map location for Sad? It is nice if we can keep as many gene records anchored to the map as possible. Thank you for your help, with best wishes, Rachel. PS: Katya's email address is not in FlyBase, so I'm sending it to both of you at Deborah's address.
