Dear list, I am fiddling around with KEGG.db and KEGGSOAP and I am finding that some of the networkd in KEGG.db are not available through the KEGGSOAP API. FOr example, hsa05030 : Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) When I search for the name on the KEGG website I get a different number e.g. hsa05014. Is this because the KEGG.db annotation package is old? > sessionInfo() R version 2.8.1 (2008-12-22) i386-apple-darwin8.11.1 locale: en_GB.UTF-8/en_GB.UTF-8/C/C/en_GB.UTF-8/en_GB.UTF-8 attached base packages: [1] tools stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods [8] base other attached packages: [1] KEGG.db_2.2.5 org.Hs.eg.db_2.2.6 RSQLite_0.7-1 [4] DBI_0.2-4 AnnotationDbi_1.4.3 Biobase_2.2.2 [7] KEGGSOAP_1.16.0 SSOAP_0.4-6 RCurl_0.94-1 [10] XML_2.3-0 reshape_0.8.2 plyr_0.1.5 Thanks Dan -- ************************************************************** Daniel Brewer, Ph.D. Institute of Cancer Research Molecular Carcinogenesis Email: daniel.brewer at icr.ac.uk ************************************************************** The Institute of Cancer Research: Royal Cancer Hospital, a charitable Company Limited by Guarantee, Registered in England under Company No. 534147 with its Registered Office at 123 Old Brompton Road, London SW7 3RP.

Hi Daniel, Yes. We rebuild all of the annotation packages for each new release (which happens twice a year). The new KEGG.db has the term you found and will be available in a matter of days as part of the new release.
