- Method Detail
  - getHomologue
```
Gene getHomologue(Gene gene,
                  Taxon taxon)
```
    Parameters:
    
    taxon - desired taxon to find homologue in
    
    gene - gene
    
    Returns:
    
    Finds the homologue of the given gene for the taxon specified, or null if there is no homologue
  - getHomologues
```
Collection<Gene> getHomologues(Gene gene)
```
    Parameters:
    
    gene - gene
    
    Returns:
    
    Collection of genes found in Gemma that are homologous with the given gene. Empty if no homologues or gene lacks homologue information, or null if not ready.
  - getHomologues
```
Collection<Long> getHomologues(Long ncbiId)
```
    Parameters:
    
    ncbiId - gene ncbi id
    
    Returns:
    
    A collection of NCBI gene ids that are homologous with the given NCBI Gene Id
  - getHomologueValueObject
```
GeneValueObject getHomologueValueObject(Long geneId,
                                        String taxonCommonName)
```
    Parameters:
    
    taxonCommonName - desired taxon to find homologue in
    
    geneId - gene id
    
    Returns:
    
    Finds the homologue of the given gene for the taxon specified, or null if there is no homologue
  - getNCBIGeneIdsInGroup
```
Collection<Long> getNCBIGeneIdsInGroup(long homologeneGroupId)
```
  - refresh
```
void refresh()
      throws IOException
```
    Refresh homologene data.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
