get_gene_identifiers: Retrieve All Gene Identifiers

In dami82/TCGAretriever: Retrieve Genomic and Clinical Data from CBioPortal Including TCGA Data

Retrieve All Gene Identifiers

Description

Obtain all valid gene identifiers, including ENTREZ gene identifiers and HUGO gene symbols. Genes are classified according to the gene type (*e.g.*, 'protein-coding', 'pseudogene', 'miRNA', ...). Note that miRNA and phosphoprotein genes are associated with a negative entrezGeneId.

Usage

get_gene_identifiers(dryrun = FALSE)

Arguments

dryrun

Logical. If TRUE, all other arguments (if any) are ignored and a representative example is returned as output. No Internet connection is required for executing the operation when 'dryrun' is TRUE.

Value

Data Frame including gene identifiers.
