Hello, 

 I am trying to get information on a probes from the
illumina_humanwg_6_v1 platform using the R interface with the biomaRt
library. For some reason, some probes (around 1500) seem to no longer have
any information on ensembl.  

 For example, "0004730161" is a probe with
no information through this interface,

getBM(attributes=c("illumina_humanwg_6_v1", "hgnc_symbol", "entrezgene"),
filters="illumina_humanwg_6_v1", values=c("0004730161"), uniqueRows=TRUE,
mart=ensembl) 

[1] illumina_humanwg_6_v1 hgnc_symbol entrezgene  

 (or
0-length row.names) 

 where as, "0006980528" is a probe that has
information 

> getBM(attributes=c("illumina_humanwg_6_v1", "hgnc_symbol",
"entrezgene"), filters="illumina_humanwg_6_v1", values=c("0006980528"),
uniqueRows=TRUE, mart=ensembl) 

 illumina_humanwg_6_v1 hgnc_symbol
entrezgene 

1 6980528 ATP10D 57205   The BioMart web interface on the
ensembl website however does provide information for both these probes.   I
am at a loss at trying to explain the missing probes from the biomaRt R
interface. Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks, Reuben Thomas
