Subject: RE: FlyBase query: EDRC2001: I12 Dear Gillian, dNEP1 is CG5894 dNEP2 is CG9761 dNEP3 is CG9565 Best wishes, Alan \-----Original Message----- Sent: 23 August 2001 15:06 Subject: FlyBase query: EDRC2001: I12 Dear Dr. Shirras, I am curating your abstract for the upcoming European Drosophila conference in Edinburgh, for FlyBase. I am writing in connection with your abstract: I12 'The Neprilysin (NEP) family of zinc metallopeptidases \-implications for peptide signalling in Drosophila melanogaster.' You mention 3 genes that are new to FlyBase: 'dNEP1', 'dNEP2' and 'dNEP3'. Do you know which of the Genome Project CG annotations your genes correspond 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 genes do not correspond to CGs then perhaps you could tell me their map location, as this is valuable information for the genome annotation project. Any information you give me will be curated as a personal communication from you to FlyBase, Thank you for your help, with best wishes, Gillian \-------------------------------------------------------------- Gillian Millburn.
