Convenient converter from ensembl ID to gene name

Description

Convenient converter from ensembl ID to gene name

Usage

ensembl_id_2_gene_name(
  ensembl_gene_id,
  only_gene_name = TRUE,
  verbose = FALSE,
  mRt_objct = ensembl
)

Arguments

ensembl_gene_id	A character specifying the ENSEMBL gene ID
only_gene_name	Logical, whether to return only the gene name or a data.frame with more info. Default TRUE
verbose	Logical. Do you want me to be chatty?
mRt_objct	A biomaRt object created with the gimme_mart() function.

Value

A character corresponding to an ensembl gene name or a data.frame.

Examples

ensembl <- gimme_mart()
ensembl_id_2_gene_name("ENSG00000000003")
"TSPAN6"
# Example with mouse ensembl
ensembl <- gimme_mart(species = "mmusculus", latest = T, use_mirror = F, 
                      out_dir = F, verbose = T)
ensembl_id_2_gene_name("ENSMUSG00000067377", only_gene_name = F)
