KDE/TDE and GNOME are completely different, they use different code
bases and different toolkits for their GUI elemenets. They use
different menu structures and directories to store their menus. If
GNOME has a menu editor (or you can find one for GNOME), you can add
it (and your other KDE apps) manually. I'd recommend finding a menu
tool for GNOME that can scan for and add TDE/KDE3.5 apps.
