[R] Gene Ontology Profiling on Single Data Set with Different Species?

[Sarah Pohl]

Hey everyone,

I have a list of genes for which I would like to get Gene Ontology profiles (i.e. what are the most common GO terms). First I had a look at topGO, but since that compares two data sets, which I don’t have, it wasn’t right for this purpose. I then found goProfiles, which seems to do exactly what I wanted, but there is one problem: the genes I have don’t all come from the same organism, so there’s no organism annotation package.
Do you know of any other R package that would do the trick if I give it my list of genes and their GO terms? Or do I have to create my own annotation package and then use goProfiles?

Regards,
Sarah
