hgu133plus2GENENAME {hgu133plus2} | R Documentation |
hgu133plus2GENENAME is an R environment that maps manufacturer identifiers to the corresponding gene name.
Each manufacturer id maps to a named vector containing the gene
name. The vector name corresponds to the manufacturer id. If the gene
name is unknown, the vector will contain an NA
.
Gene names currently include both the official (validated by a nomenclature committee) and preferred names (interim selected for display) for genes. Efforts are being made to differentiate the two by adding a name to the vector.
Mappings were based on data provided by:

# Convert to a list xx <- as.list(hgu133plus2GENENAME) # Remove probes that do not map to any GENENAME xx <- xx[!is.na(xx)] if(length(xx) > 0){ # Gets the gene names for the first five probe ids xx[1:5] # Get the first one xx[[1]] }
