[Bioperl-l] Converting Human GeneID to Mouse GeneID

[Cui, Wenwu (NIH/NLM/NCBI) [C]]

You can query HomoloGene DB using NCBI EUtils: 

ESearch like this:
http://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/esearch.fcgi?db=homologene&
term=BRCA1[gene%20name]&retmode=text

Once get HomoloGene id then
Then Efetch:
http://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/efetch.fcgi?db=homologene&i
d=5276

Just SOAP it to get the gi and acc via taxid. 

Good luck.

Subject: [Bioperl-l] Converting Human GeneID to Mouse GeneID

Hello,

Is there a way with Bioperl (or some other tool - NCBI EUtils?) to
convert a
Human NCBI GeneID to a Mouse GeneID. I have a list of Human GeneID's
that I
need to convert to Mouse GeneIDs so that I can compare them to my Mouse
microarray data.

Thank you,

Paul
