[Bioc-devel] Question about org.Dr.eg.db package

[Margolin, Gennady (NIH/NICHD) [C]]

Hi Vincent,

Thank you for responding.

Here is from the R documentation help page from this package (I have version 3.10.0 (I doubt anything changed with the latest one, which is 3.11.4)):

-------------------------------------------------
org.Dr.egCHRLOC {org.Dr.eg.db}
Entrez Gene IDs to Chromosomal Location
Description
org.Dr.egCHRLOC is an R object that maps entrez gene identifiers to the starting position of the gene. The position of a gene is measured as the number of base pairs.
The CHRLOCEND mapping is the same as the CHRLOC mapping except that it specifies the ending base of a gene instead of the start.

-------------------------------------------------

This output also does not show any genome version:

This should probably be posed to the support site.  What version of the package are you using?  Where
are you seeing coordinates?  I would expect those to be obtained from the TxDb package, or perhaps
from AnnotationHub.

Hello,

I have a short question – how do I figure the genome version for org.Dr.eg.db package? I couldn’t see it in the DESCRIPTION and also it’s not in org.Dr.eg_dbInfo() output. It would be nice to know if this is danRer11/GRCz11 or some other assembly, as there are coordinates present in the DB.

Thank you,
Gennady
