ginmappeR is a comprehensive R package that provides a unified and accessible interface for gene and protein identifier mapping. By integrating various biological sequence databases, ginmappeR addresses the challenges of database heterogeneity and low coupling, enabling users to seamlessly work with multiple data sources in a cohesive and efficient manner. Additionally, ginmappeR offers unique utilities, such as accessing UniProt similar genes and NCBI identical proteins, which enhance the flexibility and richness of the mapping process. Furthermore, its advanced features, such as caching for both final and intermediate translations and robust error handling, set it apart from other packages and help reducing processing times and minimising network traffic, especially when translating large volumes of genes or proteins.
