Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10292
Dear Anne,
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:
Drosophila Regulatory Factor X is necessary for ciliated sensory neuron
differentiation.
Your work studies Drosophila homologs of osm-6 , osm-5, and osm-1. We
need to know which these genes are, so that we can add your reference
to the correct genes in our files. Is the osm-6 gene our CG9595
(FBgn0031829)? Do you know which of the Genome Project CG annotations
your other two genes 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. We
can use the symbols osm-6 , osm-5, and osm-1 for the fly genes, as they
have not (yet) been used for any other gene.
Thank you very much for your help,
with best wishes,
Rachel.
