I am unable to run a script I have been using quite happily in the
past, so I suspect a change in the "outside world", but I can't find
any news about it.
It appears that the usual attributes for GO terms and IDs (CC, BP and
MF) are not available. (?)
If you try this quick example:
library(biomaRt)
ensembl=useMart("ensembl")
dataset="hsapiens_gene_ensembl"
ensembl=useDataset(dataset, mart=ensembl)
attributes=c("entrezgene",
"go_cellular_component_id",
"go_cellular_component__dm_name_1006")
getBM(attributes=attributes,
filters="entrezgene",
values=1, mart=ensembl)
It fails with the error:
Error in getBM(attributes = attributes, filters = "entrezgene", values = 1, :
Invalid attribute(s): go_cellular_component_id,
go_cellular_component__dm_name_1006
Please use the function 'listAttributes' to get valid attribute names
and if you list the attributes...
listAttributes(ensembl)
you can see they're indeed not listed...
am I right thinking this has nothing to do with the biomaRt R side of things?
