Dear List,
I have created a TranscriptDB for yeast as follows:
library(GenomicFeatures)
library(biomaRt)
## create yeast DB
myDB <- makeTranscriptDbFromBiomart(biomart = "ensembl", dataset =
"scerevisiae_gene_ensembl", circ_seqs = c(DEFAULT_CIRC_SEQS, "Mito"))
myDBx <- cdsBy(myDB,by = "tx",use.names = TRUE)
Now, I would like to retrieve the external gene ids.
Is this the most generic way?
# select mart and dataset
mymart = useMart("ENSEMBL_MART_ENSEMBL", dataset =
"scerevisiae_gene_ensembl", host="www.ensembl.org")
# just a selection of transcripts
sel = names(myDBx)[5:6]
getBM(attributes=c("ensembl_transcript_id","external_gene_id"), values
=
sel, filters = "ensembl_transcript_id", mart = mymart)
And, when creating a TranscriptDB From UCSC:
myDB1 <- makeTranscriptDbFromUCSC(genome = "hg19",tablename =
"knownGene")
myDBx1 <- cdsBy(myDB1,by = "tx",use.names =TRUE)
What would be here the most generic way to retrieve the external gene
IDs
for each transcript ID?
Best,
Stefanie
