Updated in FB2025_05: We've added 9 new binary drivers to the Frequently Used GAL4 and Other Binary System Drivers resource https://flybase.org/GAL4/freq_used_drivers/, which documents all binary drivers curated to at least 15 (lexA) or 20 (GAL4) papers.

You can find a link to the Frequently Used GAL4 and Other Binary System Drivers resource at the bottom of the GAL4 etc QuickSearch tab.

FlyCyc represents all the metabolic reactions and pathways of Drosophila melanogaster, computed by combining comprehensive pathway data at BioCyc (MetaCyc) with the set of manually curated/reviewed Gene Ontology annotations at FlyBase

Links from FlyBase gene reports to FlyCyc pathway pages have been updated to reflect the latest associations.

You can find those links in the Linkouts subsection of the External Crossrefereences and Linkouts section of Gene Reports.

We have recently updated FlyCyc https://biocyc.org/DMEL/organism-summary, the pathway-genome database representing Drosophila metabolism, to include enzymatic complexes as well as further improvements to enzyme annotations. #FlyCyc is now classed as a ‘Tier 1 Highly Curated Organism Database’.
