Title: NCBI2R-An R package to navigate and annotate genes and SNPs

Depends: R (>= 2.10)
Description: NCBI2R is an R package that annotates lists of SNPs and/or
genes, with current information from NCBI, including LD
information. Functions are provided that with one command will
provide annotation of the results from genome wide association
studies to provide a broader context of their meaning. Other
functions enable comparisons between a user's GWA results, and
candidate snp/gene lists that are created from keywords, such
as specific diseases, phenotypes or gene ontology terms.
Commands are simple to follow and designed to work with R
objects to integrate into existing workflows. The output
produces text fields and weblinks to more information for items
such as: gene descriptions, nucleotide positions, OMIM,
pathways, phenotypes, and lists of interacting and neighboring
genes. Annotation can then be used in R for further analysis,
or the objects can be customized for use in spreadsheet
programs or web browsers. The NCBI2R package wasdesigned to
allow those performing genome analysis to produce output that
could easily be understood by a person not familiar with R.
Please see the website at http://NCBI2R.wordpress.com for more
information. The internet is required for almost all of these
functions. Use the function PrintNCBI2RInfo() for information.
