## Map between Manufacturer Identifiers and Mendelian Inheritance in Man (MIM) identifiers

### Description

hgu95aOMIM is an R environment that provides mappings between manufacturer ids and OMIM ids.

### Details

Each manufacturer id is mapped to a vector of OMIM ids. The vector length may be one or longer, depending on how many OMIM ids the manufacturer id maps to. An `NA` is reported for any manufacturer id that cannot be mapped to an OMIM id at this time.

OMIM is based upon the book Mendelian Inheritance in Man (V. A. McKusick) and focuses primarily on inherited or heritable genetic diseases. It contains textual information, pictures, and reference information that can be searched using various terms, among which the MIM number is one.

Mappings were based on data provided by:

### Examples

        # Convert the environment to a list
        xx <- as.list(hgu95aOMIM)
        # Remove probe ids that do not map to any MIM number
        xx <- xx[!is.na(xx)]
        if(length(xx) > 0){
            # The MIM numbers for the first two elements of XX
            xx[1:2]
            # Get the first one
            xx[[1]]
        }
