Have you tried monkeying around with it at all? There may be a super
elegant way to do so, but you should also be able to cobble your own
solution together in a number of ways.

(1) Looking at the output from `cols(org.Hs.eg.db)` suggest that there
is at least one column (UNIPROT) that can tell you protein info about
<whatever>.

(2) Another thing to think about is that you can query a TranscriptDb
object to get coding exons only. Assuming you have the `Homo.sapiens`
package, you can query the TxDb package that comes with it to get all
the coding exons (`cdsBy`) for example then link transcript IDs to
entrez ids in a number of ways.
