Subject: Helping FlyBase: EDRC-OG12 Dear Anne-Laure, We are currently curating the abstracts for the 19th (Eger) European Drosophila Research Conference, for FlyBase. I am writing in connection with your abstract: Tenectin, a new ligand of alphaPS2 betaPS integrin. You mention a gene symbol that is new to FlyBase, tenectin. 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. If you have settled on a short symbol for tenectin, now would be a good time to tell me, so that it can go into FlyBase correctly, from the outset. With best regards, Rachel. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rachel Drysdale.
