_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     org.Sc.sgdCOMMON2ORF is an R object that maps the yeast common
     names (gene names and aliases) to the corresponding yeast ORF
     identifiers.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     Each yeast common name, either gene name or alias, maps to a
     vector of ORF identifiers.  This mapping is the reverse mappings
     of org.Sc.sgdGENENAME.  

     Mappings were based on data provided by:

     Yeast Genome (
