babelgene
Gene Orthologs for Model Organisms in a Tidy Data Format
Description
Genomic analysis of model organisms frequently requires the use of databases based on human data or making comparisons to patient-derived resources. This requires harmonization of gene names into the same gene space. The 'babelgene' R package converts between human and non-human gene orthologs/homologs. The package integrates orthology assertion predictions sourced from multiple databases as compiled by the HGNC Comparison of Orthology Predictions (HCOP) (Wright et al. 2005 <doi:10.1007/s00335-005-0103-2>, Eyre et al. 2007 <doi:10.1093/bib/bbl030>, Seal et al. 2011 <doi:10.1093/nar/gkq892>).
