Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC.06-60373 Dear Andrea, We are currently curating the abstracts for the upcoming 47th (Houston) Annual Drosophila Research Conference, for FlyBase. I am writing in connection with your abstract: A novel POU gene acts in odor receptor gene choice. You mention a gene symbol that is new to FlyBase, pdm3. 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. Subject: Re: Helping FlyBase: ADRC.06-60373 Rachel, Pdm3 corresponds to CG11641 on Flybase. Sorry for the trouble. Let me know if there is anything else. \-Andrea
