\title{Map between Manufacturer Identifiers and cytogenetic maps/bands}
\description{
   r10kcodMAP is an R object that provides mappings between
   manufacturer identifiers and cytoband locations.
}
\details{
  Each manufacturer identifier is mapped to a vector of cytoband locations. The
  vector length may be one or longer, if there are multiple reported
  chromosomal locations for a given gene. An \code{NA} is reported for
  any manufacturer identifiers that cannot be mapped to a cytoband at this time.
  
  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
