[Drosophila] Transgenic RNAi Project (TRiP) Accepting Gene Nominations

[Stephanie Mohr]

Is your favorite fly gene an unknown? Not represented by an allele at  
Bloomington? Mutations lead to pleiotropic defects that prevent study  
in your tissue of interest? Would otherwise benefit from a robust,  
inducible transgenic RNAi hairpin approach?

The NIH-funded Transgenic RNAi Project (TRiP) at Harvard Medical  
School is accepting community nominations.

Based on these gene nominations and other criteria (including input  
from Bloomington), the TRiP will decide for what genes they will  
generate hairpin constructs and corresponding transgenic flies.

To learn more about the TRiP and to make nominations, please visit  
the "Nominations" section of the TRiP webpages (within the Drosophila  
RNAi Screening Center's website) at http://flyrnai.org/TRiP-HOME.html

To learn about exsiting TRiP stocks, please visit the "TRiP Stocks"  
section of the webpages at http://flyrnai.org/TRiP-HOME.html
