In your abstract: 'Searching the Ral GTPase function through two-hybrid and genetics.' you describe two genes which are new to FlyBase: 1. dRGL Do you have a map location for dRGL? It is nice if we can keep as many gene records as possible anchored to the map. 2. dRal As far as I know, dRal is new to FlyBase, although there is a 'Rala' (Ras-related protein) gene already in FlyBase. This is in the EMBL sequence database under accession number U23800. Is dRal the same as Rala ? If dRal is not the same as Rala, do you have a map location for dRal? I look forward to hearing from you, Gillian \-------------------------------------------------------------- Gillian Millburn.

No, you are right, this 'dRal' is what is called 'Rala' but it isn't clear that is more RalA than RalB. It is located at 3E, on the X There are two mistakes in the sequence that I found originally (2 years ago) in Genbank, that change two amino acids. But the sequence found in the EST section of BDGP is correct. Don't hesitate if I am not clear or if you want to know more. Jacques \------------------------------------------------------ Jacques H.
