From rd120@XXXX Mon Feb 10 10:02:12 2003 To: ssgrewal@XXXX Subject: Helping FlyBase: ADRC-10797 Dear Savraj, We are currently curating the abstracts for the upcoming 44th (Chicago) Annual Drosophila Research Conference, for FlyBase. I am writing in connection with your abstract: Ribosomal RNA synthesis and the regulation of cell growth. You mention a gene symbol that is new to FlyBase, Tif-IA. 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. Thank you very much for your help, with best wishes, Rachel. \---------------------------------------------------------------------- Rachel Drysdale, Ph.D. FlyBase (Cambridge), Department of Genetics, University of Cambridge, Downing Street, email: rd120@XXXX Cambridge, CB2 3EH, Ph : 01223-333963 UK.

I identified it as the drosophila homolog by sequence alignment. The CG number is CG3278 take care Savraj
