Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10378 Dear Whitney, We are currently curating the abstracts for the upcoming 44th (Chicago) Annual Drosophila Research Conference, for FlyBase. I am writing in connection with your abstract: Characterization of a mutation that modulates the wingless mutant phenotype. You mention a gene symbol that is new to FlyBase, eon. Do you now 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. Thank you very much for your help, with best wishes, Rachel. \---------------------------------------------------------------------- Rachel Drysdale, Ph.D. FlyBase (Cambridge), \---------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Helping FlyBase: 10378 \- eon Hi Rachel, You don't need to worry about curating eon \-- we've figured out that the mutations are in RacGap50C, formerly CG13345. Now we just have to figure out why it's modulating the wg phenotype!
