Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10879
Dear Xinhua,
We are currently curating the abstracts for the upcoming 42nd
(Washington, D.C.) Annual Drosophila Research Conference, for FlyBase.
I am writing in connection with your abstract:
'Identification of botv, a new segment polarity gene that encodes a
protein of the putative tumor suppressor EXT family.'
You mention a gene that is new to FlyBase, botv. Do you know which of the
Genome Project CG annotations your gene corresponds to? All the CGs
have corresponding gene records in FlyBase already and we don't like to
make duplicate records for what is actually the same gene unless we
can't avoid it. If your gene does not correspond to a CG then perhaps
you could tell me its map location, as this is valuable information for
the genome annotation project.
Thank you for your help,
with best wishes,
Rachel.

Dear Rachel:
... The gene botv is CG15110 or BcDNA: LD21192. Please let me know
if there is other info needed.
