Tool for Human Gene Functional classes in R

I am looking for a tool that would help me extract detailed information about a list of genes, whether it is kinases or proteases etc. Is there any package in R that would take a list of genes as input (gene symbol or entrez id ) and output the functionality of each gene.

r gene rna-seq

You can use biomaRt in Bioconductor using the MIM gene or GO molecular function term as attributes.

i have already got the GO ids for my genes but now how do i extract some information from the GO ids for each gene? for example i want to extract JAK-STAT cascade or cellular protein metabolic process, how do i extract that?

I use clusterProfiler for functional analysis along with Bitr.

and here is an example of using bitr to map GO to gene and vice versa by specify the fromType and toType.

GeneSCF will be simple and perfect for your task (but NOT in R).
