I am writing in connection with your abstract: 'Control of food intake and growth in Drosophila larva by pumpless, a gene encoding an enzyme involved in amino acid metabolism' You mention a gene that is new to FlyBase, ppl. Do you have a map location for ppl? It is nice if we can keep as many gene records as possible anchored to the map. Also, from your abstract it seems to me that you are talking about one particular mutation rather than several alleles of the same gene, is this correct ? Do you have an allele designation for the mutation, e.g. ppl1 (<up></up> = superscript) If so then we can store the information about it much more precisely. Thank you for your help, with best wishes, Chihiro
