rba_uniprot_proteins_search

Search UniProt entries


Description

Using this function, you can search and retrieve UniProt Knowledge-base (UniProtKB) protein entries using variety of options. You may also refine your search with modifiers such as sequence length, reviews status etc. refer to "Arguments" section" for more information.

Usage

rba_uniprot_proteins_search(
  accession = NA,
  reviewed = NA,
  isoform = NA,
  go_term = NA,
  keyword = NA,
  ec = NA,
  gene = NA,
  exact_gene = NA,
  protein = NA,
  organism = NA,
  taxid = NA,
  pubmed = NA,
  seq_length = NA,
  md5 = NA,
  ...
)

Arguments

accession

UniProtKB primary or secondary accession(s). You can provide up to 100 accession numbers.

reviewed

Logical: If TRUE, only return "UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot" (reviewed) entries; If FALSE, only return TrEMBL (un-reviewed) entries.

isoform

Numeric: you have three options:

  • 0: Exclude isoforms.

  • 1: Return isoforms only.

  • 2: Return both.

see: Alternative products

go_term

Limit the search to entries associated with your provided GO (Gene Ontology) term. You can provide Either GO ID or a character string -partially or fully- matching the term. e.g. "GO:0001776" or "leukocyte homeostasis". if You provide "leukocyte", any term containing that word will be included, e.g "leukocyte chemotaxis", "leukocyte activation".

keyword

Limit the search to entries that contain your provided keyword. see: UniProt Keywords

ec

EC (Enzyme Commission) number(s). You can provide up to 20 EC numbers.

gene

UniProt gene name(s). You can provide up to 20 gene names. e.g. if you provide "CD40", "CD40 ligand" will also be included.

exact_gene

UniProt exact gene name(s). You can provide up to 20 exact gene names. e.g. if you provide "CD40", "CD40 ligand" will not be included in the results.

protein

UniProt protein name

organism

Organism name.

taxid

NIH-NCBI Taxon ID. You can provide up to 20 taxon IDs.

pubmed

Entries which cite to the article with your provided PubMed ID.

seq_length

An exact sequence length (e.g. 150) or a range of sequence lengths (e.g. "130-158").

md5

Sequence md5 value.

...

rbioapi option(s). Refer to rba_options's arguments documentation for more information on available options.

Details

Note that this is a search function. Thus, you are not required to fill every argument; You may use whatever combinations of arguments you see fit for your query.s
UniProt Entries are grouped in two sections:

  1. Reviewed(Swiss-Prot): Manually annotated records with information extracted from literature and curator-evaluated computational analysis.

  2. Unreviewed (TrEMBL): Computationally analyzed records that await full manual annotation.

Value

A List where each element corresponds to one UniProt entity returned by your search query. The element itself is a sub-list containing all information that UniProt has about that entity.
