Subject: ADRC: 034
Dear Leonard,
I am writing in connection with your abstract for the upcoming Washington
DC ADRC:
'Dpp receptors Sax and Tkv have differential effects on follicle cell gene
expression.'.
You mention a gene that is new to FlyBase, A359. We were wondering you
have a more descriptive symbol/name for this gene by now? Also, do you
have a map location for A359? 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.

Dear Rachel,
'A359' is our shorthand for A359.1M3 a P element enhancer trap from the Gehring screen.
I think the insertion is not new to Flybase
Hugo Bellen mapped the insertion to 68C, I believe, but please let me check that location and get back to you on it.
All the best,
Len

Hi Len,

Odd though it seems, it is new to FlyBase. Can you confirm whether (or
not!) it is a P{lArB} insertion? I'll curate your message as a personal
communication to FlyBase, as a source for the mapping data.
If you know of any publications where it has appeared then please could you
send me the references. If we've missed it somewhere then I should go and
find it.
best wishes,
Rachel.
