Question

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to retrieve go terms programmatically in R using a set of keywords. Any ideas?

Thanks

BiomaRt package might be one way to go. Did you try your favorite internet search engine?

1) Use GeneSCF's 'prepare_database' (example) module to download all GO terms with genes as a simple text file.

2) Use this text file and grep the terms you want.
