\title{An annotation data object that maps miRNA families to miRBase
  identifiers}
\description{
  targetscan.Hs.egFAMILY2MIRBASE maps miRNA family names to miRBase
  identifiers. The mappings are taken from the TargetScan database.
}
\details{
  This is an R object containing key and value pairs. Keys are miRNA
  family names and values are miRBase identifiers. Values are vectors of
  various lengths, as a single miRNA family usually corresponds to many
  miRBase miRNAs.
