12. Bioinformatics with Python: Translating Gene IDs with Python (MyGene API)
Have you ever received a dataset full of mysterious codes like "ENSG00000139618" and wondered what genes you're actually looking at? In this video, we tackle one of the most common and frustrating daily tasks in bioinformatics: translating Gene IDs. We will use the powerful mygene Python package to query the MyGene.info API, instantly converting Ensembl IDs into readable gene symbols (like BRCA2) and organizing the results into a clean table.
