[BioC] GO terms: Annotation for HumanMethylation450

Hi Fabrice,

Suppose you are using Tims package.

library("IlluminaHumanMethylation450k.db")

That would give you access to this object: IlluminaHumanMethylation450kGO

Which would allow you to get the GO IDs for all your probes etc.

So then I think your question is: how could you get the GO terms and the 
pathways?

Well how about doing this?

library(GO.db)
ids = c( "GO:0008150", "GO:0001869")  ## just for example..
result = select(GO.db, keys =ids, cols=c("DEFINITION","TERM"))

That value in result could then be merged (using the merge method) to 
your previous results (the ones that have the GOIDs)
