SomaScanTARGETFULLNAME is an R object that provides mappings between manufacturer identifiers and the names of their protein targets.

Details

Each manufacturer identifier is mapped to the full name of the SOMAmer protein target. An NA is reported if there is no target name information for a given SOMAmer reagent.

The full protein target name is typically written in sentence case without using gene symbol abbreviations, however gene symbols can still occasionally be found in some target names. This information can also be found in an ADAT file with the accompanying target name (an abbreviated version of the full name found in this mapping).

Mappings were based on data provided by: SomaLogic (https://somalogic.com/somascan-menu/), with a date stamp from the source of: 2023-Oct

Value

A Bimap object of the ProbeAnnDbBimap class.

Examples

## select() interface:
## Objects in this package can be accessed using the select() interface
## from the AnnotationDbi package. See ?select for details.

## Bimap interface:
x <- SomaScanTARGETFULLNAME
# Get the probe identifiers that are mapped to a gene symbol
mapped_probes <- mappedkeys(x)
# Convert to a list
xx <- as.list(x[mapped_probes][1:300])
if(length(xx) > 0) {
  # Get the TARGETFULLNAME for the first five probes
  xx[1:5]
  # Get the first value
  xx[[1]]
}
#> [1] "Beta-crystallin B2"
