Dear all, Is there any way to use the command makeTranscriptDbFromBiomart (biomart="ensembl",dataset="hsapiens_gene_ensembl",transcript_ids=NULL ) from GenomicRanges package of the Biocunductor so that it can retrieve data from Ensembl release version 62 instead of the current release version 65. Thanks in advance for any help. Anupam

Not tried it for makeTranscriptDbFromBiomart but probably works the same was as biomart which would use : mart<-useMart("ensembl_mart_51",host="apr2011.archive.ensembl.org",dat aset="hsapiens_gene_ensembl",archive=TRUE) see http://www.ensembl.org/index.html and at the very bottom of the page the "View in archive site" link to get the version you want you get the strange mart name "ensembl_mart_51" using: listMarts(host="apr2011.archive.ensembl.org",archive=TRUE) ..
