Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-399B
Dear Olivier,
We are currently curating the abstracts for the upcoming 41st
(Pittsburgh) Annual Drosophila Research Conference, for FlyBase.
I am writing in connection with your abstract:
'Characterization of RBF2, a novel pocket protein in Drosophila
melanogaster.'
You mention that Rbf2 is represented by two ESTs. Are these BDGP
ESTs? If so please could you tell me which ones - we track this class
of data. You also mention three P-elements. Are these BDGP/Szeged
insertions? If so could you let me know their identifiers - we track
this class of data too.
Thank you for your help,
with best wishes,
Rachel.

Dear Rachel,
The three P-elements are thew following ones: P-1732 or l(3)08724 (BDGP),
P-518 or l(3)S028404 (Szeged) and P-2000 or l(3)125011 (Szeged). P-2000 is
actually not a lethal, but a male sterile at 25-C and perfectly alive and
fertile at 18-C. They all map 5' of Moira in the 89B1 region.
The two ESTs I refer to are from the BDGP and they are LD 02737 and LD
15806. They are both full lenght clones and LD 02737 has the exact same
sequence than the genomic sequence released by Celera.
Best regards,
Olivier
