Map Between Yeast Common Names and ORF Identifiers

Description

org.Sc.sgdCOMMON2ORF is an R object that maps the yeast common names (gene names and aliases) to the corresponding yeast ORF identifiers.

Details

Each yeast common name, either gene name or alias, maps to a vector of ORF identifiers. This mapping is the reverse mappings of org.Sc.sgdGENENAME.

Mappings were based on data provided by:

Yeast Genome http://downloads.yeastgenome.org/ With a date stamp from the source of: 07-Sep-2013

Examples

     # Convert to a list
     xx <- as.list(org.Sc.sgdCOMMON2ORF)
     # Remove probes that do not map in COMMON2ORF
     xx <- xx[!is.na(xx)]
     if(length(xx) > 0){
         # Gets the ORF identifiers for the first five gene names/alias
         xx[1:5]
         # Get the first one
         xx[[1]]
     }
