I am trying to use the useEnsembl() function but continue to get the following error:

Possible SSL connectivity problems detected. Please report this issue at https://github.com/grimbough/biomaRt/issues Error in curl::curl_fetch_memory(url, handle = handle) : SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK: [uswest.ensembl.org] SSL certificate problem: certificate has expired

Thank you for the report. This was because the uswest mirror has now been retired (https://www.ensembl.info/2023/01/13/retirement-of-ensembl-us-west-aws-mirror/) and your query ended up there. I've now updated biomaRt to remove any reference to that mirror, and hopefully this won't affect you again.
