Hi,

I am getting errors when trying to obtain uniprotkb ids from mgi_symbol with biomaRt after I updated all packages. An example of my code before:

mouse = useMart("ensembl", dataset = "mmusculus_gene_ensembl")
prot_retrieved <- getBM(attributes = c("mgi_symbol","uniprotswissprot"), filters = "mgi_symbol", values = c("Mfap1b", "Champ1"), mart = mouse)

This returns the error:

Error in getBM(attributes = c("mgi_symbol", "uniprotswissprot"), filters = "mgi_symbol",  :
  Invalid attribute(s): uniprotswissprot
Please use the function 'listAttributes' to get valid attribute names

After the update, "uniprotswissprot" attribute changed to "uniprot_swissprot". I corrected my code, and I got a new error:

Error in getBM(attributes = c("mgi_symbol", "uniprot_swissprot"), filters = "mgi_symbol",  :
  Query ERROR: caught BioMart::Exception::Usage: Attribute uniprot_swissprot NOT FOUND

Is it possible to fix this or to get uniprotkb ids from mgi_symbols? I have tried with the package UniProt.ws, but it is not possible to get any information from mgi_symbol (that I know of). Thanks.

Not really sure what's going on here, but for me this works using the uniprotswissprot version e.g.

library(biomaRt)
mouse <- useMart("ensembl", dataset = "mmusculus_gene_ensembl")
res <- getBM(attributes = c("mgi_symbol","uniprotswissprot"), 
             filters = "mgi_symbol", 
             values = c("Mfap1b", "Champ1"), 
             mart = mouse)

> res
  mgi_symbol uniprotswissprot
1     Mfap1b           C0HKD8
2     Mfap1b           C0HKD9
3     Champ1           Q8K327

I have just updated all R packages again and biomaRt is working like before, with the attribute version "uniprotswissprot". I get the same results you show, thanks for you reply. I don't know what happened.
