Dear BioC people,
 
I'm looking for orthologs of a certain list of genes (mouse => yeast).
I was trying to do it in an automated way thanks to BioC.
 
Since I couldn't find any for the particular list, I looked for all
orthologs (mouse => yeast).
And I only found 38.
 
The code chunk below is almost identical to that in the homology
vignette, so I suppose it's ok.
 
Is it normal that I found so few?
 
Cheers,
Adrien
