On 2010 May 6.206 UT, data acquired with the Palomar Transient Factory Project (ATEL#1964) were reduced in nearly real-time by the automated subtraction pipeline at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center. A source at position RA(J2000) = 12:49:22.81 and DEC(J2000) = -06:23:51.3 at a magnitude of 20.2 in R-band (calibrated with respect to the USNO catalog) was identified at May 6.315 by an autonomous inspection code which classified the source as a likely supernova, marking up the source as PTF10guz.
