I used the TTD database to identify a list of proteins that I want to highlight in a KEGG pathway map.

From this database I can extract the UniprotKB AC/ID for each protein. For example for HDAC1, this would be HDAC1_HUMAN. On the Uniprot website (https://www.uniprot.org/uploadlists/) I can enter that and select From UniProtKB AC/ID to GeneID (Entrez Gene), which will give me 3605 for the HDAC1_HUMAN protein. I am trying to do exactly this in RStudio with a vector of UniProt IDs that I want to convert to Entrez IDs. However, I couldn't manage and therefore wanted to ask whether someone can help me with this? I installed the Uniprot.ws package but cannot get a hold of which function to use.

So what I want to achieve is the following:

Input vector:

c(HDAC1_HUMAN,RIR2_HUMAN,PK3CG_HUMAN,TOP1_HUMAN,TOP2A_HUMAN, TOP2B_HUMAN,S19A1_HUMAN, PCFT_HUMAN)

Some R function to convert this

Output vector:

c(3065, 6241, 5294, 7150, 7153, 7155, 6573, 113235)

This output vector would then be used in the following function to highlight the proteins in two KEGG pathway maps:

pv.out <- pathview(gene.data = 'Output vector', pathway.id = c('hsa05200','hsa04110'), species = "hsa", out.suffix = "gse16873", kegg.native = T)

Which function can I use to achieve this?

Thanks a lot for your help!

The key to realize is that your input is a vector of Uniprot IDs (also known as 'entry names') . The central identifier in the Uniprot database are accession numbers, though. Because of this it would be best to retrieve (use) the accession numbers, also because these remain stable between database versions (see here for more info). Moreover, as a bonus, you would also be able to use the more efficient (=faster) annotation library org.Hs.eg.db!! (See e.g. here; the IDs cannot be queried in the OrgDb).

So regarding your first entry; HDAC1_HUMAN is a Uniprot ID, and its accession number (=central identifier) is Q13547.

Now using some code based on that posted before:

Thanks a lot for your response!

I tried the code in my script and got to the following result:

The error message translates to the following: Trying to put the colnames for an object with less than two dimensions. The only object appearing in the script so far is 'up', do I have to manually modify 'up'?

No, no need to modify up.

It somehow has to do with the R.BioC version; it works when using the latest versions (R-4.2.0/BioC-3.15), but not with the previous one (R-4.1.x/BioC-3.14). You will thus need to update!

I fixed this when Bioc 3.13 was the release version, so it should work in 3.14 and the current release.

Hi,

I updated R, RStudio as well as the packages and now everything is working neatly! Thank you so much for your contributions to my problem and competent answers, this helped me a lot!

Have a nice day!
