Hello! I don't know if there is some R-package able to associate ontology to a long list of UniGene Name (a txt-tab file or an XML file), or if the best way is a Perl script. Some suggestion? Thanks! A. S.

It depends on where the UniGene names come from and whether we have already done a mapping (for example if they were from some commonly used Affymetrix chips then it would be relatively easy). If not, you need to do the mapping - what is easiest depends on what you know, for me R is usually easier than Perl for many others it goes the other way...but really, you need to be a bit more specific about what you are trying to do if you want anyone to help you.
