Convert Protein names to Gene names/symbols

Question

[ShahdEzzeldin]

Hi All,

I have a list of proteins names and their COG accession number, generated from a metaproteomics software. How could I convert them to gene names or symbols?

Here an example of my list:

COG3968 Glutamine synthetase type III(3012)

COG0085 DNA-directed RNA polymerase, beta subunit/140 kD subunit(4241)

COG4822 Cobalamin biosynthesis protein CbiK, Co2+ chelatase(1154)

COG0480 Translation elongation factor EF-G, a GTPase(5433)

COG0090 Ribosomal protein L2(1921)

COG3968 Glutamine synthetase type III(3012)

COG0228 Ribosomal protein S16(1540)

COG0057 Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase/erythrose-4-phosphate dehydrogenase(2333)

Anyone could help please?

Thanks

You can use e.g. UniProt's ID mapping (here). You need to choose "eggNOG" in the "From" drop-down menu and can paste your ID list into the upper field.

You can also use the eggNOG database itself. But there I found no batch look-up.

I guess there are plethora of similar sides

Cheers,
