[BioC] Definition of probes in lumiHumanAll annotation database

Thanks,
I meant information such as:
Homo sapiens APOBEC1 complementation factor (A1CF), transcript variant 
2, mRNA.
Homo sapiens APOBEC1 complementation factor (A1CF), transcript variant 
1, mRNA.
Homo sapiens APOBEC1 complementation factor (A1CF), transcript variant 
3, mRNA.

Since the gene A1CF has three different probes each one related to a 
given transcript variant. Don't know how to find the above information 
through either illuminaHumanv4.db or lumiHumanAll.db annotation packages.

Thanks,
Javier
