Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10115
Dear Ho-Chun,
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 the phosphoinositide phosphatase Dsac1 in Drosophila
melanogaster.
You mention a gene symbol that is new to FlyBase, Sac1. 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.
Thank you very much for your help,
with best wishes,
Rachel.

HI Rachel
Sorry for the delayed reply. The corresponding CG for
Sac1 is CG9128. I looked up the Flybase but there was
no name for CG9128. I carefully analyzed this gene
sequence and found it is a homolog of yeast Sac1p and
thus I named it as Dsac1. Please let me know if there
is any problem with it. Thank you.
Yours truly
HoChun
