}
\arguments{
\item{genelist}{a string vector, the gene list to be transferred.}

\item{now_name}{a string, the current format of gene names, one of 'ensembl', 'symbol'.}

\item{to_name}{a string, the  format of gene names to transfer, one of 'ensembl', 'symbol'.}

\item{species}{a string, the species, one of 'Human' and 'Mouse'.}
}
\value{
Return a string vector of transferred gene names. The gene names not matched in the database will not change.
}
