nomenclature

[Sandy Silverman]

I asked this question on bionet.molbio.yeast but I may have set the distrib
wrong since I only got one reply:
What would be the proper way to refer to an enzyme activity when the 
following conventions hold:
MFG1 (italics) = gene  (my favorite gene)
Mfg1p          = protein from that gene

Especially if enzyme activity can be attributed to Mfg1p and perhaps other
factors, I would argue for
Mfg1 activity.  i.e. leave off the p
Editors?
