Gene mapping made easy


Bioconductor version: Release (3.23)

`orthogene` is an R package for easy mapping of orthologous genes across hundreds of species. It pulls up-to-date gene ortholog mappings across **700+ organisms**. It also provides various utility functions to aggregate/expand common objects (e.g. data.frames, gene expression matrices, lists) using **1:1**, **many:1**, **1:many** or **many:many** gene mappings, both within- and between-species.
