hgu2beta7

The function hgu2beta7() provides information about the binary data files


Mappings between probe identifiers and manufacturer or user provided identifiers

Description

hgu2beta7ACCNUM contains mappings between probe ids to identifiers provided by a manufacturer or user at the time when hgu2beta7 was built. The manufacture or user provided ids were used to link probe ids to annotation data available from various public data sources to obtain the other annotations contained in hgu2beta7.

Details

In order to build an annotate data package, a data file with a column for probe ids and another for the matching manufacturer/user provided ids is required. This data file is used as the base for mapping probe ids to LocusLink identifiers (unique ids used by NCBI http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/LocusLink/ to represent genetic loci and link to curated sequence and descriptive information) through the manufacturer/user provided ids. The mapped LocusLink ids then serve as the point of linkage to other annotation data provided by various public data sources.

hgu2beta7ACCNUM contains the mappings of the base file and the derived mappings between probe ids to other annotation data are contained by other annotation data files in hgu2beta7.

Valid manufacturer/user provided ids currently include GenBank accession numbers (identifiers obtained after submitting a sequence to GenBank, EMBL or DDBJ), UniGene ids (identifiers used by NCBI to represent clusters of sequences of a unique gene), RefSeq ids (identifiers for non-redundant sequences curated by NCBI), or IMAGE clone ids (identifies given to clones from shared arrayed cDNA libraries by The Integrated Molecular Analysis of Gene Expression (IMAGE) Consortium).

For all the Affymetrix chips, the manufacturer/user provided ids are GenBank accession numbers.

Examples

# Convert to a list
        xx <- as.list(hgu2beta7ACCNUM)
        # Remove probe ids that do not map to any ACCNUM
        xx <- xx[!is.na(xx)]
        if(length(xx) > 0){
        # Get the ACCNUM for the first five probes
        xx[1:5]
        # Get the first one
        xx[[1]]
}

Mappings between probe identifiers and the chromosome numbers the genes represented by the probe ids reside

Description

Each chromosome of a given organism is assigned a number or letter for labeling purpose. hgu2beta7CHR maps probe ids to the numbers or letters labeling chromosomes where the genes corresponding to the probe ids reside

Details

Since a given gene may be found in more than one chromosomes, each probe id is mapped to a character vector of length 1 or greater. Probe ids that can not be mapped to any chromosome at the time when the package was built are assinged NAs.

Mappings were based on data provided by:

        if(length(xx) > 0){
            # Get the chromosome number for the first five probes
            xx[1:5]
            # Get the first one
            xx[[1]]
        }

A named vector for the length of each of the chromosomes

Description

hgu2beta7CHRLENGTHS provides the length measured in base pairs for each of the chromosomes.

Details

This is a named vector with chromosome numbers as the names and the corresponding lengths for chromosomes as the values.

Total lengths of chromosomes were derived by calculating the number of base pairs on the sequence string for each chromosome.

Annotations were derived base on data privided by:

Golden Path:http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/hg17/database/. Built: hg17

Examples

tt <- hgu2beta7CHRLENGTHS
    # Length of chromosome 1
    tt["1"]

Mappings between probe identifiers and the chromosomal locations of the genes represented by the probe identifiers

Description

hgu2beta7CHRLOC maps probe ids to the starting positions of the genes represented by the probe ids on chromosomes. The position of a gene is measured as the number of base pairs.

Details

Chromosomal locations on both the sense and antisense strands are measured as the number of base pairs from the p (5' end of the sense strand) to q (3' end of the sense strand) arms. Chromosomal locations on the antisense strand have a leading "-" sign (e. g. -1234567). NAs are assigned to probe ids whose chromosomal locations are not known.

Since a given gene may have more than one chromosomal locations, each probe id is mapped to a named vector of length 1 or greater. The names of each vector give the chromosome number where the genes reside. When a gene can be mapped to a given chromosome but the exact location of the gene can not be determined with confidence, "random" is appended to the end of the name for a chromosomal location value.

        # Gets the first one
        xx[[1]]
    }

Mappings between probe identifiers and the enzyme commission numbers, to which the products of the genes represented by the probe ids correspond

Description

Genes code for proteins/enzymes that take part in various biological processes. hgu2beta7ENZYME maps probe ids to Enzyme Commission numbers for the enzymes the genes represented by the probe ids code for. Enzyme Commission numbers are assigned by the Nomenclature Committee of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology http://www.chem.qmw.ac.uk/iubmb/enzyme/ to allow enzymes to be identified.

Details

Each probe id is mapped to one or more Enzyme Commission numbers. An Enzyme Commission number is of the format EC x.y.z.w, where x, y, z, and w are numeric numbers. In hgu2beta7ENZYME, EC is dropped from the Enzyme Commission numbers.

Enzyme Commission numbers have corresponding names that describe the functions of enzymes in such a way that EC x is a more general description than EC x.y that in turn is a more general description than EC x.y.z. The top level EC numbers and names are listed below:

EC 1 oxidoreductases

EC 2 transferases

EC 3 hydrolases

EC 4 lyases

EC 5 isomerases

EC 6 ligases

hgu2beta7ENZYME only provides mappings to EC numbers. The EC name for a given EC number can be viewed at http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iupac/jcbn/index.html#6

Mappings between probe identifiers and the names of genes the probe ids correspond to

Description

hgu2beta7GENENAME maps probe identifiers to the names of genes corresponding to the probe ids. Gene names are the descriptions used for gene reports that have been validated by a nomenclature committee or interim selected for display

Details

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 between probe identifiers and Gene Ontology information

Description

The Gene Ontology Consortium maintains a controlled vocabulary of defined terms to describe gene products. hgu2beta7GO maps probe identifiers to Gene Ontology information including the ids, evidence codes, and ontology categories of the terms for the genes represented by the probe ids.

Details

Each probe id is mapped to a list containing one (mapped to none or one set of GO information) or more (mapped to more than one sets of GO information) elements. When a probe id is mapped to at lest one set of GO information, each element of the list contains a sub list of three elements named "GOID", "Ontology", and "Evidence". The value for element "GOID" gives the Gene Ontology identifier the key probe id corresponds to. The value for element "Ontology" can be an abbreviation of MF (mocular function), BP (biological process), or CC (cellular component) for the GO ontology category the GO id belongs to. The value for element "Evidence" contains an evidence code indicating what kind of evidence is found to support the association of the GO id to the gene represented by the key probe id.

The evidence codes in use include:

IMP: inferred from mutant phenotype

IGI: inferred from genetic interaction

IPI: inferred from physical interaction

ISS: inferred from sequence similarity

IDA: inferred from direct assay

IEP: inferred from expression pattern

IEA: inferred from electronic annotation

TAS: traceable author statement

NAS: non-traceable author statement

ND: no biological data available

IC: inferred by curator

Mappings between probe ids and GO information were obtained through their mappings to LocusLink ids. NAs are assigned to probe identifiers that can not be mapped to any Gene Ontology information. Mappings between Gene Ontology ids an Gene Ontology terms and other information are available in a separate data package named GO.

Mappings between GO identifiers and all the probe idifiers representing genes associated with the GO ids

Description

The Gene Ontology (GO) Consortium maintains a controlled vocabulary of defined terms to describe gene products. Each of the terms is assigned a GO id that can be associated with a group of genes directly or indirectly through the children GO ids of the GO id. hgu2beta7GO2ALLPROBES maps GO ids to genes (represented by probe identifiers) that are directly or indirectly mapped to the GO ids by traversing the GO tree.

Details

GO terminologies are presented as a directed acyclic graph with root nodes having more general terms than their children nodes. Therefore, a GO id can be mapped to genes corresponding to the term of that particular GO id as well as genes corresponding to the terms of all the children GO ids.

hgu2beta7GO2ALLPROBES maps a GO id to all the probe ids representing genes mapped by traversing the GO tree. The mapped probe ids are named vectors. Names of the vectors are the evidence codes indicating what kind of evidence is found to support the association between GO ids and genes.

The evidence codes in use include:

IMP - inferred from mutant phenotype

IGI - inferred from genetic interaction

IPI - inferred from physical interaction

ISS - inferred from sequence similarity

IDA - inferred from direct assay

IEP - inferred from expression pattern

IEA - inferred from electronic annotation

TAS - traceable author statement

NAS - non-traceable author statement

ND - no biological data available

IC - inferred by curator

A GO id may be mapped to the same probe id more than once but the evidence code can be different. Mappings between Gene Ontology ids and Gene Ontology terms and other information are available in a separate data package named GO.

Mappings between probe identifiers and the PubMed identifiers for the publication where functional annotation of genes corresponding to the probe ids were made

Description

NCBI http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/GeneRIF/GeneRIFhelp.html allows users to add functional annotation of genes by providing a PubMed identifier for the publication where the annotation was initially made and a concise phrase describing the function. hgu2beta7GRIF maps probe identifiers to the PubMed identifiers for the publication reporting the functions of genes corresponding to the probe identifiers

Details

Probe ids are only mapped to the PubMed ids. Efforts are being made to also include the concise phrase describing the function of a gene.

Mappings between probe identifiers and LocusLink identifiers

Description

LocusLink identifiers are unique ids used by NCBI http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/LocusLink/ to represent genetic loci and link to curated sequence and descriptive information. hgu2beta7LOCUSID maps probe identifiers to LocusLink identifiers for genes represented by the probe identifiers.

Details

Mappings of probe ids to LocusLink ids are achieved through the linkage between probe ids to manufacturer/user provided ids contained in hgu2beta7ACCNUM. LocusLink ids are first mapped to manufacturer/user provided ids using file(s) provided by Locuslink and in some cases UniGene and other available sources and then linked to probe ids based on the mappings between probe ids and manufacturer/user provided ids.

When a given probe id was mapped to different LocusLink ids by different sources, the one agreed by most sources was selected. When no agreement was achieved among sources, the one of the smallest numeric value was selected.

Mappings between probe identifiers and cytogenetic maps/bands

Description

When viewed using a microscope and special stains a chromosome is divided into regions, or cytogenetic bands, of transverse alternating light and dark or fluorescent and nonfluorescent bands. hgu2beta7MAP maps probe identifiers to the labels of cytogenetic bands within chromosomes where genes represented by the probe ids are located

Details

Cytogenetic bands for most higher organisms are labeled p1, p2, p3, q1, q2, q3 (p and q are the p and q arms), etc., counting from the centromere out toward the telomeres. At higher resolutions, sub-bands can be seen within the bands. The sub-bands are also numbered from the centromere out toward the telomere. Thus, a label of 7q31.2 indicates that the band is on chromosome 7, q arm, band 3, sub-band 1, and sub-sub-band 2.

A given probe id may be mapped to one or more cytogenetic bands depending on whether genes represented by probe ids have only one or more chromosomal locations. Different genes may also be mapped to the same cytogenetic bands.

The physical location of each band on a chromosome can be obtained from another environment named "organism"CYTOLOC in a separate data package for human(humanCHRLOC), mouse(mouseCHRLOC), and rat(ratCHRLOC).

Mappings between probe identifiers and Mendelian Inheritance in Man (MIM) identifiers

Description

The OMIM database (Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man) http://www3.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=OMIM contains data for human genes and genetic disorders. hgu2beta7OMIM maps probe identifiers to MIM numbers that can be used to search the database

Details

OMIM is based upon the book Mendelian Inheritance in Man (V. A. McKusick) and focuses primarily on inherited or heritable genetic diseases. It contains textual information, pictures, and reference information that can be searched using various terms, among which the MIM number is one.

A character string for the name of the organism

Description

This is a character string for the name of the organism of concern. The name of the organism can be viewed by typing the name of the binary file that will be loaded when the package is loaded by calling library(hgu2beta7)

Details

Although the name of the package is offten suggestive of the organism the package concerns, having an environment object for organism name make it easier to get the name of the organism programmatically.

PubMed http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/PubMed/ includes over 14 million citations for biomedical articles back to the 1950's. Each article has a unique PubMed identifier. hgu2beta7PMID maps probe identifiers to PubMed identifier for publications that cited the genes represented by the probe identifiers

Details

Titles, abstracts, and possibly full texts of articles can be obtained from PubMed by providing a valid PubMed id. The pubmed function of annotate can also be used for the same purpose.

Mappings were based on data provided by:

Quality control information for hgu2beta7

Description

A data file containing statistics for all the data files in this package. The data are used for quality control purpose

Details

This file contains quality control information that can be displayed by typing hgu2beta7() after loading the package using library(hgu2beta7). The follow items are included:

Date built: Date when the package was built.

Number of probes: total number of probes included

Probe number missmatch: if the total number of probes of any of the data file is different from a base file used to check the data files the name of the data file will be listed

Probe missmatch: if any of probes in a data file missmatched that of the base file, the name of the data file will be listed

Mappings found for probe based files: number of mappings obtained for the total number of probes

Mappings found for non-probe based files: total number of mappings obtained


Mappings between probe identifiers and RefSeq identifiers

Description

The Reference Sequence (RefSeq) database contains curated non-redundant set of sequences for genomic DNA, RNA, and protein for various organisms. hgu2beta7REFSEQ maps probe identifiers to all the RefSeq identifiers that are mapped by NCBI to genes represented by the probe identifiers

Details

RefSeq ids differ in format according to the type of record the ids are for as shown below:

NG\_XXXXX: RefSeq accessions for genomic region (nucleotide) records

NM\_XXXXX: RefSeq accessions for mRNA records

NC\_XXXXX: RefSeq accessions for chromosome records

NP\_XXXXX: RefSeq accessions for protein records

XR\_XXXXX: RefSeq accessions for model RNAs that are not associated with protein products

XM\_XXXXX: RefSeq accessions for model mRNA records

XP\_XXXXX: RefSeq accessions for model protein records

Where XXXXX is a sequence of integers.

NCBI http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/RefSeq/ allows users to query the RefSeq database using RefSeq ids.

# Convert the environment to a list
    xx <- as.list(hgu2beta7REFSEQ)
    # Remove probe ids that do not map to any RefSeq
    xx <- xx[!is.na(xx)]
    if(length(xx) > 0){
    # The RefSeq for the first two elements of XX
    xx[1:2]
    # Get the first one
    xx[[1]]
}

Mappings between probe identifiers and summaries of the functions of genes represented by the probe identifiers

Description

hgu2beta7SUMFUNC maps probe identifiers to brief summaries of functions of the products of genes represented by the probe identifiers

Details

Annotation of genes by brief summaries of functions of the products of genes represented by the probe identifiers were supported by earlier builds of the LocusLink source data but not so lately. This annotation may have to be dropped in the future.

    if(length(xx) > 0){
        # The function summaries for the first two elements of XX
        xx[1:2]
        # Get the first one
        xx[[1]]
    }

Mappings between probe identifiers and gene symbols

Description

When new genes are reported, gene symbols that are (hopefully) validated by an appropriate nomenclature committee are used to label the genes. hgu2beta7SYMBOL maps probe identifiers to the symbols used to report genes represented by the probe identifiers

Details

hgu2beta7SYMBOL maps probe ids to either the official (validated by a nomenclature committee) and preferred names (interim selected for display). Efforts are bing made to differentiate the two.

Symbols typically consist of 3 letters that define either a single gene (ABC) or multiple genes (ABC1, ABC2, ABC3). Gene symbols can be used as key words to query public databases such as LocusLink.

Mappings between probe identifiers and UniGene cluster identifiers

Description

NCBI partitions sequences submitted to GenBank into non-redundant sets of clusters. Each cluster contains sequences that represent a unique gene and is assigned a unique UniGene id. hgu2beta7UNIGENE maps probe identifiers to UniGene cluster identifiers for genes represented by the probe ids

Details

A UniGene id represents a cluster of sequences of a gene. Using UniGene ids one can query the UniGene database for information about the sequences or the LocusLink database for information about the genes.

    xx <- xx[!is.null(xx)]
    if(length(xx) > 0){
        # The UniGene ids for the first two elements of XX
        xx[1:2]
        # Get the first one
        xx[[1]]
