\name{SHDZGENENAME} \alias{SHDZGENENAME} \title{Map between Manufacturer IDs and Genes} \description{ SHDZGENENAME is an R object that maps manufacturer identifiers to the corresponding gene name. } \details{ Each manufacturer identifier maps to a named vector containing the gene name. The vector name corresponds to the manufacturer identifier. If the gene name is unknown, the vector will contain an \code{NA}. Gene names currently include both the official (validated by a nomenclature committee) and preferred names (interim selected for display) for genes. Efforts are being made to differentiate the two by adding a name to the vector. Mappings were based on data provided by: Entrez Gene ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/DATA With a date stamp from the source of: 2012-Mar7 } \examples{ x <- SHDZGENENAME # Get the probe identifiers that are mapped to a gene name mapped_probes <- mappedkeys(x) # Convert to a list xx <- as.list(x[mapped_probes]) if(length(xx) > 0) { # Get the GENENAME for the first five probes xx[1:5] # Get the first one xx[[1]] } } \keyword{datasets}
