Hello,
I sent an email to the Bioconductor mailing list but was redirected
here for the following suggestion:
It'd be (even more) convenient if Biomart would return data in an
order identical to that given as input.
E.g., if retrieving cDNA of IDs 1 to 10, this means sequences would be
returned in the order 1 to 10 (i.e., not randomly).
In other words, the First In would be the First Out (FIFO).
Please find below a practical example of what I mean:
> ensembl.yeast = useMart(biomart="ensembl", dataset =
> "scerevisiae_gene_ensembl")
> ids = c("S000005528","S000000221" ,"S000005993", "S000003105", "S000004200")
> yeast.gen = getSequence( id=ids, mart=ensembl.yeast, seqType=c("cdna"),
> type="sgd_transcript" )
> yeast.gen[[2]]
[1] "S000005528" "S000004200" "S000003105" "S000000221" "S000005993"
All the best,
Emmanuel
