## Bioconductor annotation data package

### Description

Welcome to the org.Hs.eg.db annotation Package. This is an organism specific package. The purpose is to provide detailed information about the species abbreviated in the second part of the package name org.Hs.eg.db. "Hs" is for Homo sapiens. This package is updated biannually.

You can learn what objects this package supports with the following command:

`ls("package:org.Hs.eg.db")`

Each of these objects has their own manual page detailing where relevant data was obtained along with examples of how to use it. Many of these objects also have a reverse map available. When this is true, expect to usually find relevant information on the same manual page as the forward map.
