Class GeneXMLDownloader

  • public class GeneXMLDownloader
extends java.lang.Object

    Alternative to GeneXMLFromASN1Extractor.

    Downloads NCBI Gene XML from NCBI via eUtils. The class extracts the protein names for each gene and its summary. The downloaded XML may be stored for later use in which case a new download is not required.

    Note that the download is a fragile way to get the required gene information in contrast to GeneXMLFromASN1Extractor. During very long downloads, network issues might corrupt the downloaded data. Also, the download takes a lot of time. It is still feasible for 10-20 taxonomy IDs.
