Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10148 Dear Edan, 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: A Comprehensive RNAi Screen for Novel Innate Immune Regulators You mention a gene symbol that is new to FlyBase, Dnr1. 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. With best wishes, Rachel. \---------------------------------------------------------------------- Rachel Drysdale, Ph.D. FlyBase (Cambridge), \---------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10148 Hi Rachel, we identified Dnr1 in a screen for genes that regulate the innate immune response. The corresponding gene is CG 12489. best Edan \-- Edan Foley, Ph. D. 600 16th Street S374 Dept. of Biochemistry & Biophysics UCSF San Francisco CA. 94143-2200
