topGO returns in the result table of enriched GO terms GO term descriptions. But longer description is abbreviated with "..." as in the attached part of topGO result table (first two columns of results). Is there a way how to retrieve directly from topGO the non-truncated term descriptions? (I'd like to use it for construction of word cloud).
GO.ID Term 1 GO:0006457 protein folding 2 GO:0006352 DNA-templated transcription, initiation 7 GO:0006367 transcription initiation from RNA polyme... 10 GO:0015991 ATP hydrolysis coupled proton transport 27 GO:0042073 intraciliary transport
Perhaps you can use a workaround looking into the GO.db package for the terms of these ids.
Yes, thanks for suggesting the package.
I'm now indeed using Term() function from GO.db package to retrieve terms for ids...I was just wondering if I'm not missing an argument in topGO which would do it directly.
I haven't been using topGO for a while, but I think it could output the whole term name, but maybe it is not displayed (or I could be wrong).
