Subject: Helping FlyBase: EDRC-NB16
Dear Marion,
We are currently curating the abstracts for the 19th (Eger)
European Drosophila Research Conference, for FlyBase.
I am writing in connection with your abstract:
Wex is required for glial cell migration in the Drosophila PNS
You mention a gene symbol that is new to FlyBase, wex. 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 regards,
Rachel.

Dear Rachel,
wex corresponds to CG3000 (rap = retina aberrant in pattern).
sorry for the confusion,
best regards
