Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10221
Dear Stephen,
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:
'Paternal chromosome loss caused by the paternal loss and loser mutations of
Drosophila melanogaster.'
You mention a gene that is new to FlyBase, lsr. Do you happen to 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-
We only have a rough map position for loser right now. I'm not
sure that its good enough to be 'curated'. We're certain that its on
3R between ru and h, but that's as far as we're at right now. Thanks!
Steve
