Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10449 Dear Henrike, We are currently curating the abstracts for the upcoming 45th (Washington DC) Annual Drosophila Research Conference, for FlyBase. I am writing in connection with your abstract: The hangover gene defines a stress pathway required for ethanol tolerance in Drosophila You mention a gene symbol that is new to FlyBase, hangover. 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. The CG symbols become synonyms when an annotation is named with a more descriptive or functional name. Also, if hangover has picked up a short symbol since you submitted the abstract then this would be a good time to tell me so I can get it into the database. With best wishes, Rachel. \---------------------------------------------------------------------- Rachel Drysdale, Ph.D. FlyBase (Cambridge), \---------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10449 Dear Rachel, hangover (short: hang) corresponds to CG32575 (CG4411). Since it is in the process of getting published, I was a little bit imprecise. ....
