Fetch all genes

Fetch names for all genes.

fetchAllGenes(species, types = NULL, config = NULL)

Arguments

species

String specifying the taxonomy ID of the species of interest.

types

Character vector specifying the types of gene names to return. This is typically one or more of "symbol", "entrez", and "ensembl", defaulting to all of them.

config

Configuration list, typically created by newConfig. If NULL, the default configuration is used.

Value

Data frame where each row represents a gene. Each column corresponds to one of the types and is a list of character vectors. Each vector in the column contains the names of the specified type for each gene.
