Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-60168 Dear Shengyin, We are currently curating the abstracts for the upcoming 48th (Philadelphia) Annual Drosophila Research Conference, for FlyBase. I am writing in connection with your abstract: Growl, a novel gurken RNA binding protein essential for dorsoventral patterning. You mention a gene symbol that is new to FlyBase, growl. Do you know which of the 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. Best regards, Rachel. Subject: RE: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-60168 Dear Rachel, . The Growl gene is correspond to CG14648. If you need additional information, please don't hesitate to contact me. Best wishes Shengyin
