Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10775 Dear Richard, 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: The Neprilysin (NEP) family of zinc metallopeptidases and peptide signaling in Drosophila melanogaster . You mention a gene symbol that is new to FlyBase, Nep4. 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. \---------------------------------------------------------------------- Rachel Drysdale, Ph.D. FlyBase (Cambridge), \---------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10775 NEP4 is CG4058. \-- Professor R.
