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, review status etc. See "Arguments" section" for more information.
Usage
rba_uniprot_proteins_search(
accession = NULL,
reviewed = NULL,
isoform = NULL,
go_term = NULL,
keyword = NULL,
ec = NULL,
gene = NULL,
exact_gene = NULL,
protein = NULL,
organism = NULL,
taxid = NULL,
pubmed = NULL,
seq_length = NULL,
md5 = NULL,
...
)Arguments
- accession
UniProtKB primary or secondary accession(s). You can supply 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 supplied GO (Gene Ontology) term. You can supply Either GO ID or a character string -partially or fully- matching the term. e.g. "GO:0001776" or "leukocyte homeostasis". if You supply "leukocyte", any term containing that word will be included, e.g "leukocyte chemotaxis", "leukocyte activation".
- keyword
Limit the search to entries that contain your supplied keyword. see: UniProt Keywords
- ec
EC (Enzyme Commission) number(s). You can supply up to 20 EC numbers.
- gene
UniProt gene name(s). You can supply up to 20 gene names. e.g. if you supply "CD40", "CD40 ligand" will also be included.
- exact_gene
UniProt exact gene name(s). You can supply up to 20 exact gene names. e.g. if you supply "CD40", "CD40 ligand" will not be included in the results.
- protein
- organism
- taxid
NIH-NCBI Taxon ID. You can supply up to 20 taxon IDs.
- pubmed
Entries which cite to the article with your supplied 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). See
rba_options's arguments manual for more information on available options.
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.
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:
Reviewed(Swiss-Prot): Manually annotated records with information extracted from literature and curator-evaluated computational analysis.
Unreviewed (TrEMBL): Computationally analyzed records that await full manual annotation.
