NAME

idfetch - retrieve biological data from the NCBI ID1 server

SYNOPSIS

idfetch [-] [-F str] [-G filename] [-Q filename] [-c N] [-d str] [-e N] [-f str] [-g N] [-i N] [-l filename] [-n] [-o filename] [-q str] [-s str] [-t N]

DESCRIPTION

idfetch is a client for NCBI's ID1 server, which contains a large database of annotated biological sequences.

OPTIONS

A summary of options is included below.

-
Print usage message
-F str
Add the specified feature types (comma-delimited); allowed values are CDD, SNP, SNP_graph, MGC, HPRD, and STS.
-G filename
File with list of GIs, (versioned) accessions, FASTA SeqID's to dump
-Q filename
Generate GI list by Entrez query in filename; requires -dn or -dp.
-c N
Max complexity:
0
get the whole blob (default)
1
get the bioseq of interest
2
get the minimal bioseq-set containing the bioseq of interest
3
get the minimal nuc-prot containing the bioseq of interest
4
get the minimal pub-set containing the bioseq of interest
-d str
Database to use (with -q, can be either n for nucleotides or p for proteins).
-e N
Entity number (retrieval number) to dump
-f str
Flattened SeqId. Possible formats:

type([name][,[accession][,[release][,version]]]) as '5(HUMHBB)'

type=accession

type:number

(type is a number indicating the ASN.1 Seq-id subtype.)
-g N
GI id for single Entity to dump
-i N
Type of lookup:
0
get Seq-entry (default)
1
get GI state (output to stderr)
2
get SeqIds
3
get GI history (sequence change only)
4
get revision history (any change to ASN.1)
-l filename
Log file
-n
Output only the list of GIs (with -q and -Q).
-o filename
Filename for output (default = stdout)
-q str
Generate gi list by Entrez query. Requires -dn or -dp.
-s str
FASTA style SeqId ENCLOSED IN QUOTES. Formats:

lcl|int or str

bbs|int

bbm|int

gb|acc|loc

emb|acc|loc

pir|acc|name

sp|acc|name

pat|country|patent|seq

gi|int

dbj|acc|loc

prf|acc|name

pdb|entry|chain
-t N
Output type:
1
text ASN.1 (default)
2
binary ASN.1
3
GenBank (Seq-entry only)
4
GenPept (Seq-entry only)
5
FASTA (table for history)
6
