geneList

Name or vector of names (that can be both code or symbol) to specific genes from PsyGeNET. The genes non existing in PsyGeNET will be removed from the output.

database

Name of the database that will be queried. It can take the values 'psycur15' to use data validated by experts for first release of PsyGeNET; 'psycur16' to use data validated by experts for second release of PsyGeNET; or 'ALL' to use both databases. Default 'ALL'.

verbose

By default FALSE. Change it to TRUE to get a on-time log from the function.

Examples

genesOfInterest <- c("PECR", "ADH1C", "CAST", "ERAP1", "PPP2R2B",
                     "ESR1", "GATA4", "CDH13")
psyGeneSen <- psygenetGeneSentences( geneList = genesOfInterest,
                                     database = "ALL")
