Fetch orthologs from InParanoiDb

This function retrieves the orthologs from InParanoiDB 9 database for 640 species given set of Ensembl Gene IDs or uniprot IDs usinf database API.

Usage

searchIpDb(geneID, ..., idtype = "ensembl")

geneID: Gene ID of Plasmodium falciparum or VEupathDB enlisted organisms that are also covered by InParanoiDB. If providing uniprot ID, set idtype="uniprot" to prevent ID conversion.
...: Additional arguments that can be passed to toGeneid() function. This comes in very handy if you are working with parasite gene IDs other than Plasmodium.
idtype: Set this to "uniprot" if using uniprot IDs directly and GenID to uniprot ID conversion is not required.

A data frame, containing 10 columns.

To view list of species covered by InParanoiDB 9, use listipdb() function.

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
df <-  searchIpDb( c("PF3D7_0807800", "PF3D7_1023900"))
df <- searchIpDb( c("C5LD32", "A5KAC7"),idtype = "uniprot")
} # }
