Subject: Helping FlyBase: CSH-157
Dear Joanne,
We are currently curating the abstracts for the 2001 CSH Neurobiology
of Drosophila Conference, for FlyBase.
I am writing in connection with your abstract:
'A conserved mechanism for motoneuron development? The role of DHB9 in
specifying motoneuron fate and ventral axon projections.'
You mention a gene that is new to FlyBase, HB9. 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. It seems possible that HB9 corresponds to
CG8254 (FBgn0035828) or slou (FBgn0002941) but you would know for
sure.
Thank you very much for your help,
with best wishes,
Rachel.

Hi Rachel,
Yes DHB9 corresponds to annotation CG8254 and the gene exex (though it hasn't
been published, it is in flybase and there was an abstract at this year's CSH
Dros Neuro meeting). Let me know if you have any other questions!
Thanks,
Joanne Odden
