Subject: FlyBase query Dear Dr. Perotti, I am curating your paper for FlyBase: Perotti et al., 2001, Molec. Reprod. Dev. 60(2): 248--259 on the 'casanova' (csn) mutation. In this paper you say that the mutation was isolated from a set of male sterile lines that were originally described in: Hackstein, 1991, Europ. J. Cell Biol. 56(2): 151--169 there are a number of named male sterile mutations in that paper, with names such as 'ms(3)HB74', 'ms(3)HB267' etc. do you know what the 'HB' number of your csn mutant is so that I can record this information in the database and if we already have a record of the mutation I can make sure we do not end up with 2 gene records in the database for the same mutation. .. thanks, Gillian \-------------------------------------------------------------- Gillian Millburn.
