refseq_description {refseqR}

Get the sequence Description

Description

refseq_description() Returns the sequence description from a single transcript, protein, or GeneID accession.

Depending on the function, available accessions in refseqR include RefSeq models with the prefixes transcript_ (mRNA), XR_ (non-coding RNA), and XP_ (protein), as well as subsequently curated RefSeq records with NM_, NR_, or NP_ accession prefixes.

Usage

refseq_description(id)

Arguments

id

A character string of the transcript, protein, or GeneID accession.

Value

A character vector containing the sequence description corresponding to the specified sequence as id.
