Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10291 Dear Reinhard, We are currently curating the abstracts for the upcoming 43rd (San Diego) Annual Drosophila Research Conference, for FlyBase. I am writing in connection with your abstract: 'Identification and analysis of the Drosophila longevity protein.' You mention a gene that is new to FlyBase, Lag1. 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 very much for your help, with best wishes, Rachel. \---------------------------------------------------------------------- Rachel Drysdale, Ph.D. FlyBase (Cambridge), \---------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10291 Dear Rachel, I am sorry for the late response and I want to apologize. Here the answer to your question: The gene I am referring to corresponds to CG15898 and CG3576. I hope this will help. Greetings Reinhard
