Hello
I am confused as to why sometimes i can retrieve records from ensembl
via an entrezgene id and other times not.
Take this entrezgene id: 441521
The entry for this record says it is related to 2 ensembl genes
===========================================
taken from entrezgene record
===========================================
See related
Ensembl:ENSG00000228836; <http://www.ensembl.org/id/ENSG00000228836>
Ensembl:ENSG00000242284; <http://www.ensembl.org/id/ENSG00000242284>
HPRD:17573; <http://www.hprd.org/protein/17573> MIM:300796
<http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/omim/300796>
==========================================
but this code returns nothing
my @genes = @{$gene_adaptor->fetch_all_by_external_name(441521,
"EntrezGene")};
foreach my $gene (@genes){
print "gene name: ", $gene->stable_id(), "\n";
}
the same code for another gene, 280753, with related ensembl records
===========================================
taken from entrezgene record
===========================================
See related
Ensembl:ENSBTAG00000016514
<http://www.ensembl.org/id/ENSBTAG00000016514>
===========================================
does return the ensembl gene. I don't know the mappings which determine
the whether i can get a gene from ensembl by its entrez gene id
thanks a lot
