babelgene

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 helps to simplify the conversion process. It provides gene orthologs/homologs:

• for multiple frequently studied model organisms, such as mouse, rat, fly, and zebrafish
• sourced from multiple databases
• as gene symbols, NCBI Entrez, and Ensembl IDs
• without accessing external resources and requiring an active internet connection
• in an R-friendly “tidy” format with one gene pair per row

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
