## Map Entrez Gene IDs to PROSITE ID

### Description

org.Hs.egPROSITE is an R object that provides mappings between a entrez gene identifier and the associated PROSITE identifiers.

### Details

Each entrez gene identifier maps to a named vector of PROSITE identifiers. The name for each PROSITE identifier is the IPI accession numbe where this PROSITE identifier is found.

If the PROSITE is a named NA, it means that the associated Entrez Gene id of this entrez gene identifier is found in an IPI entry of the IPI database, but there is no PROSITE identifier in the entry.

If the PROSITE is a non-named NA, it means that the associated Entrez Gene id of this entrez gene identifier is not found in any IPI entry of the IPI database.

Mappings were based on data provided by: The International Protein Index ( ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/IPI/current ) on 2008-Mar19

### Examples

                    x <- org.Hs.egPROSITE
            # Get the entrez gene identifiers that are mapped to any PROSITE ID
            mapped_genes <- mappedkeys(x)
            # Convert to a list
            xxx <- as.list(x[mapped_genes])
            # randomly display 10 genes
            xxx[sample(1:length(xxx), 10)]
