Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10059 Dear Michael, 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: A determinant for directionality of organelle transport in Drosophila embryos. It is clear from your abstract that you now know which genome annotation corresponds to halo. Great. If you could let me know which it is I'll merge the gene records for the annotation and halo. Thank you very much for your help, with best wishes, Rachel. \---------------------------------------------------------------------- Rachel Drysdale, Ph.D. FlyBase (Cambridge), \---------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10059 Hi Rachel, Sorry for not responding right away, but I am swamped with preparing for the meeting. The Halo data aren't yet published, but as I understand giving Flybase this info shouldn't affect a future publication. Is that correct? If so, here is what we found: Halo corresponds to CG7428.
