translate_ids {OmnipathR}R Documentation

Translate gene and protein identifiers

Description

Translates a vector of identifiers, resulting a new vector, or a column of identifiers in a data frame by creating another column with the target identifiers.

Usage

translate_ids(
  d,
  ...,
  uploadlists = FALSE,
  keep_untranslated = TRUE,
  return_df = FALSE,
  organism = 9606,
  reviewed = TRUE
)

Arguments

d

Character vector or data frame.

...

At least two arguments, with or without names. The first of these arguments describes the source identifier, the rest of them describe the target identifier(s). The values of all these arguments must be valid identifier types as shown in Details. The names of the arguments are column names. In case of the first (source) ID the column must exist. For the rest of the IDs new columns will be created with the desired names. For ID types provided as arguments without names, the name of the ID type will be used for column name.

uploadlists

Force using the uploadlists service from UniProt. By default the plain query interface is used (implemented in uniprot_full_id_mapping_table in this package). If any of the provided ID types is only available in the uploadlists service, it will be automatically selected. The plain query interface is preferred because in the long term, with caching, it requires less download and data storage.

keep_untranslated

In case the output is a data frame, keep the records where the source identifier could not be translated. At these records the target identifier will be NA.

return_df

Return a data frame even if the input is a vector.

organism

Integer, NCBI Taxonomy ID of the organism (by default 9606 for human). Matters only if uploadlists is FALSE.

reviewed

Translate only reviewed (TRUE), only unreviewed (FALSE) or both (NULL) UniProt records. Matters only if uploadlists is FALSE.

Details

This function, depending on the uploadlists parameter, uses either the uploadlists service of UniProt or plain UniProt queries to obtain identifier translation tables. The possible values for from and to are the identifier type abbreviations used in the UniProt API, please refer to the table here: https://www.uniprot.org/help/api_idmapping. In addition, simple synonyms are available which realize a uniform API for the uploadlists and UniProt query based backends. These are the followings:

The mapping between identifiers can be ambiguous. In this case one row in the original data frame yields multiple rows or elements in the returned data frame or vector(s).
