Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC.06-60222 Dear Louise, 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: DmWWOX, a WW domain containing oxidoreductase, protects against the effects of ionising radiation and interacts genetically with Dmp53. You mention a gene symbol that is new to FlyBase, Wwox. 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.06-60222 Hi Rachel, Sorry for not replying sooner. DmWWOX corresponds to CG7221. Thanks, Louise
