Search RNA Editing in UniProt

UniProt curates RNA-editing events (conversion, insertion, deletion of nucleotides). Use this function to search RNA editing records in UniProt using various criteria such as accession, taxon ID, or protein-level variant location. At least one criterion is required.

Usage

rba_uniprot_rna_edit_search(
  accession = NULL,
  taxid = NULL,
  variant_location = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

accession

Character: (optional) UniProtKB primary or secondary accession(s). You can supply up to 100 accession numbers.

taxid

Numeric: (optional) NIH-NCBI Taxon ID. You can supply up to 20 taxon IDs.

variant_location

Character: (optional) Up to four protein-level variant locations, for example "p.Leu336Pro".

...

rbioapi option(s). See rba_options's arguments manual for more information on available options.

Value

A list in which each element represents a matching UniProt entry and is named by accession when available.
