FlyBase:Gene Report

General Information

Symbol	The valid symbol that is used in FlyBase for the gene. The first part of the symbol (before the '\') is the standard prefix for the species (from the Species Abbreviations list). For species other than D.melanogaster, the species prefix is displayed wherever the gene symbol is used throughout FlyBase. For D.melanogaster genes, the species prefix is only displayed in the GENERAL INFORMATION section at the top of a Report.
Name	The valid full name that is used in FlyBase for the gene.
Feature type	A single controlled vocabulary term from the Sequence Ontology (SO), which aims to describe the key type of the gene. The single term in this field is computed by FlyBase from the full list of SO terms listed in the SEQUENCE ONTOLOGY: Class of gene section of the Gene Report. See Computed Feature type of genes for a detailed description of how the term is selected.
Created/Updated	The date that the gene was entered into the chado database underlying FlyBase (we migrated to the chado database on 2006-08-22) and the date that the gene report was last updated. The dates are in the format: year-mm-dd.
Species	The organism that the gene originates from, with the initial letter of the genus and the full species name listed.
Annotation symbol	The current symbol for the annotation that represents the gene (if applicable).
FlyBase ID	The Primary FlyBase identifier number of the gene, used to uniquely identify the gene in the database. A gene may also have any number of Secondary FlyBase identifier numbers, which are listed in the SECONDARY FLYBASE IDs section of the Gene Report.

Genomic Location

Chromosome (arm)	The chromosome arm that the gene is located on. This field is only filled in for genes with annotations.
Cytogenetic Map	A computed cytological location, based on the position on the genome to which the gene maps. This field is only filled in for genes with annotations. See Computed cytological data in FlyBase for a detailed description of how this computed cytological location is calculated.
Recombination map	A computed genetic map position for the gene, derived from the full list of terms listed in the EXPERIMENTALLY DETERMINED RECOMBINATION DATA subsection of the DETAILED MAPPING DATA section of the Gene Report. The genetic map position is given as chromosome number-map position, or simply chromosome number-, if the gene has not been mapped within the chromosome.
Sequence location	The extent of the transcription unit on the genome, prefixed with the chromosome arm that the gene is located on. The strand to which the gene maps is indicated in square brackets after the sequence coordinates. This field is only filled in for genes with annotations.
Map (GBrowse)	A GBrowse thumbnail showing the location of the gene (highlighted in pink) in the genome. To the right of the GBrowse thumbnail, there is a box containing pull down menus to download sequences associated with the gene. The top menu allows you to download the genomic region containing the gene, in one of three formats: Decorated FastA GenBank GFF The bottom menu allows you to download some of the components of the annotation, in FASTA format. The following sequences can be downloaded: Gene region Extended Gene region Translations Transcripts 3' UTR 5' UTR

Tag or Foreign Gene Data

This section is only displayed in an individual Gene Report if the gene is a "tag" or a "foreign gene". (A "tag" is a DNA fragment that is used to confer a novel property to a gene product, and may be artificial or derived from a Drosophilid or non-drosophilid gene. A "foreign gene" is any non-drosophilid gene that has been introduced into Drosophila, for example via a transgenic construct.) For tags, this section shows the species from which the gene is derived, the nature of the tag, and either a sequence accession number (if available) or a brief description of the tag. For foreign genes, this section shows the species from which the gene is derived, the gene symbol, and where possible an accession number for the gene (either an identifier number from a model organism database, or a sequence accession number).

Summary

The summary is generated automatically from information in the gene report and related allele reports.

Detailed Mapping Data

FlyBase Computed Cytological Location

An inferred cytological location, based on the position on the genome to which the gene maps, or on polytene localization, recombination, complementation or molecular information for the gene. The evidence that was used to derive the inferred location is also given.

See Computed cytological data in FlyBase for a detailed description of how this computed cytological location is calculated.

Experimentally Determined Cytological Location

A table of cytological locations that have been reported for the gene in the literature. The table also contains additional notes on the reported location, such as a comment that the cytological location is inferred from the location of a transposable element insertion causing an allele of a gene.

Experimentally Determined Recombination Data

A table of genetic map data that have been reported for the gene in the literature. The table contains reported genetic map positions, given as chromosome number-map position, or simply chromosome number-, if the gene has not been mapped within the chromosome.

The table also lists other genes to which the gene has been mapped to the left of or right of, and additional notes on the reported location.

If a gene has been mapped cytogenetically but not genetically, an estimated genetic position may be given in square brackets, inferred from a standard Map Conversion Table.

High-Throughput Expression Data subsection → 'search for similarly expressed genes' button:
Expression data comparisons were not generated by the modENCODE consortium but by FlyBase software. The 'search for similarly expressed genes' button on a gene report initiates a 'fixed' variant of a comparative search (using some fixed predefined search settings specific to expression).
Searching is performed by comparison of gene expression level changes through the set of [similarly ordered] 'experiments' which represent known expression values under different experimental conditions (for staging data, experiments are the different developmental stages, for FlyAtlas data they are expression levels in different bodyparts/ tissues and so on). The purpose of the declared search is to compare sets of expression values from different genes, to determine the tendency of two datasets to vary together, in a somewhat correlated manner. The correlation coefficient is the best statistical test serving such a purpose.
Predefined search settings (currently) include all developmental stages from modENCODE staging data. Sets of expression values from all genes are compared to the 'test' gene, resulting in an output of top matches. This is in the form of a custom HitList which includes graphical representation of the expression profiles. Visual inspection of these profiles might allow the user an idea about the interpretation of the obtained correlation (note, the 'test' gene profile in almost all cases is located at the top of the HitList as naturally, being compared to itself, it gives perfect 100% correlation match).
FlyBase provides a simple comparison tool for the modENCODE expression data. We hope this will aid the user in interpreting the expression patterns but we also appreciate that there are more complicated ways of comparing and interpreting the data.

Note that terms are assigned to genes but apply to the product of that gene. The number in parentheses shows the total number of different terms assigned to a gene. More information about how GO terms are assigned can be found under the Classification of Gene Products using Gene Ontology (GO) terms. The current release of GO data for all FlyBase genes can be found in the gene_association.fb file. The latest version of this data is available for download here from the Gene Ontology consortium site. Details about the file format and comments on version differences can be found in the documentation on the Classification of Gene Products using Gene Ontology (GO) terms.

For each term, the type of evidence used to assign the term and the reference containing the evidence are provided. CV term Clicking on the term in the CV term column will take you to the relevant GO CV Term Report, which includes a definition of the GO term (where available). GO CV terms may be preceeded by qualifiers. The qualifier NOT is used to make an explicit note that the gene product is not associated with the GO term. The qualifier contributes_to is used when an individual gene product that is part of a complex can be annotated to terms that describe the function of the complex. contributes_to can only be used to qualify GO molecular function terms. Evidence The type of evidence used to support the GO term is indicated in the evidence column. The evidence code documentation contains details of the evidence codes used by FlyBase. More information is available in the Gene Ontology Guide to GO Evidence Codes. Some types of evidence can be supported by other database objects. These objects are identified by their database abbreviation followed by a colon and the unique identifier for the object in that database. A list of current database abbreviations can be found in the GO.xrf_abbs file. The evidence code documentation explains which codes can be used with other database objects and the special meaning attached to using multiple objects in evidence.

Orthologs The orthology calls in FlyBase are D. melanogaster-centric. We only report orthologies between D. melanogaster and other species. OrthoDB Orthologs This section presents a uniform set of orthology calls from OrthoDB. At the top of this section is the “OrthoDB Ortholog Groups” subsection. This subsection contains links to OrthoDB for each of the groups mentioned above. Clicking on the link will take you to OrthoDB where you can see additional details of the genes contained in the group. Below this is the list of genes organized by each of the groups. The groups and species within them are listed in order of increasing phylogenetic distance relative to D. melanogaster. The columns include Organism, Common Name, OrthoDB Group, and Gene. The OrthoDB Group column may contain one or more OrthoDB group IDs. In the “Gene” column you will find the target gene that is indicated as being an ortholog of the current gene. This column provides the symbol and a link to an appropriate database when possible. For non D. melanogaster FlyBase gene reports, the Orthologs sections includes links to the OrthoDB Ortholog groups (if any are identified) as well as a link to the orthologous D. melanogaster gene (where one has been identified). Human Orthologs Information about potentially orthologous human genes is presented in a table. The first column displays the symbol for a human gene ortholog predicted by OrthoDB, which links to the corresponding Ensembl gene page. The second column lists the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man MIM number for this human gene, which links to the corresponding OMIM report. The third column contains the HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee approved name or names for this human gene, which links to the corresponding HGNC gene symbol report. AAA Orthologs This table displays the orthologs called using a GLEANR analysis performed by the Drosophila 12 Genomes Consortium (FBrf0200326), from D. melanogaster to eleven other Drosophila species. Stocks & Reagents Stocks Listed in FlyBase Clicking on the "Search for Stocks" button allows you to search for stocks that contain mutant alleles of the gene, or transgenic constructs or insertions related to the gene. Genomic Clones A list of genomic clones that are associated with this gene. cDNA Clones This section lists cDNA clones that have been associated with this gene. It is subdivided to distinguish fully sequenced clones from those which have only been partially characterized. Clones that are part of the BDGP DGC collection are listed separately from the other clones. These associations are primarily automated and at this time include clones containing inserts that support the gene model as well as clones containing inserts that overlap the gene model but do not support any of the currently annotated transcripts. Efforts have been made to eliminate from this list clones that overlap the gene model but support another gene model in the same genomic region (i.e. a gene nested within an intron of another gene). In addition, clones containing sequences that overlap transposable elements have been excluded from this list. We plan to subdivide clones into those that completely support a gene model and those that overlap but do not support an annotation in a future iteration of the report but at this time care should be taken to assess the sequences linked to the clone before using a clone as a reagent. RNAi & Array Information Antibody Information A list of publications in which the generation of antibodies against the subject polypeptide has been reported. Each entry is categorized as "polyclonal" or "monoclonal" to indicate the nature of the antibodies.
