get_genes_by_Gene_Symbol() Get genes by their gene symbol/name Required parameters is on gene name or a vector of gene names

get_genes_by_Gene_Symbol(genes, chr = NULL, build = 38)

Arguments

genes

A string or vector of strings representing gene names, (e.g. "FTO") or (c("FTO","NOD2"))

chr

A string, search for the genes on this chromosome only, (e.g chr="chr1")

build

A string, genome build, choose between builds 37 (GRCh37) and 38 (GRCh38) (default is 38)

Value

Dataframe of genes

Examples

if (FALSE) {
get_genes_by_Gene_Symbol(c("FTO","THADA"))
}
