Homologous gene conversion across different species

Homologous gene conversion across different species

.

Here, we use three mouse genes as an example. The method is the same for more genes.

library(homologene)
genelist<-c("Acadm","Eno2","Acadvl")
homologene(genelist, inTax = 10090, outTax = 9606)
# Use homologene function for gene conversion
# genelist: the gene list to be converted
# inTax: the taxonomic ID of the species for the input gene list, 10090 for mouse
# outTax: the taxonomic ID of the species to convert to, 9606 for human

.

result:

convert mouse to human

.

The species IDs supported by Homologene

homologene::taxData

.

For commonly used organisms like mice and humans, there are even dedicated functions available
