Mapping DIP-id to common name[Python]

Question

[deepthi_vr]

I am doing a Protein protein interaction network clustering project. For testing the result I downloaded the data set from DIP database. It is having DIP-id for each protein and I want to compare the cluster(DIP-id as protein name) with the golden data set CYC2008 which has common name/ORF name as protein name in complex definition. Can anyone help me in converting DIP-id to gene name. For example DIP-839N to Taf1p.

Before someone else clicks on this wondering WTF a DIP-id is, it's presumably the ID from the "Database of interacting proteins".

I've changed my question. Thanks for you help

Hi,

Please always provide context to your questions. Remember, people read your question for an average of 5 seconds before they decide if they're interested in helping you, and context-less abbreviations and one-liner questions only work against you.

Thanks for your suggestion. I've changed my question

Since the ID is particular to that database, you'll have to ask the people who created it for the conversion information (I'm surprised that wasn't in the download).

For every Interaction DIP-id is there.

Uniprot/Refseq Id's are also available, but not for every interaction.

Thanks for your reply

This is a problem that I faced now as well, how you got any solution?
