Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-50219
Dear Joanne,
We are currently curating the abstracts for the upcoming 46th
(San Diego) Annual Drosophila Research Conference, for FlyBase.
I am writing in connection with your abstract:
Molecular genetic characterisation of Glutathione Synthetase in Drosophila
melanogaster.
You mention a gene symbol that is new to FlyBase, GS. 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.

Hi Rachel
The gene I'm working on is CG6835, glutathione synthetase
Please write back if you need more information
Thanks,
