     LAPOINTEPFAM is an R object that provides mappings between a
     manufacturer identifier and the associated Pfam identifiers.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     Each manufacturer identifier maps to a named vector of Pfam
     identifiers.  The name for each Pfam identifier is the IPI
     accession numbe where this Pfam identifier is found.

     If the Pfam is a named NA, it means that the associated Entrez
     Gene id of this manufacturer identifier is found in an IPI entry
     of the IPI database, but there is no Pfam identifier in the entry.

     If the Pfam is a non-named NA, it means that the associated Entrez
     Gene id of this manufacturer identifier is not found in any IPI
     entry of the IPI database.

     Mappings were based on data provided by: The International Protein
     Index ( ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/IPI/current ) on
