## Retrieve entries from public databases

### Description

This tool retrieves sequence files or other database entries from public databases. The available databases are:

- UniProt
- EMBL
- Ensembl Gene
- Ensembl Transcript
- Ensembl Genomes Gene
- Ensembl Genomes Transcript
- InterPro
- MEDLINE
- PDB
- RefSeq nucleoide
- RefSeq protein
- Taxonomy
- Trace Archive

### Parameters

- Name or ID of the sequence or database entry: the name of the database entry to be retrieved.
- Database: database to be used.

### Details

Note that this tool retrieves data only based on the the entry names or accession numbers. You can use wildcard character (*) to retrieve several entries that share similar identities. For example in the case of UniProt database name ABC* would retrieve all the UniProt sequences that whose name start with ABC.

Examples:
UniProt: Q9HYL2, CASA1_HUMAN, cy550_*
EMBL: AF391113
InterPro: IPR009056
PubMed: 12729583
PDB: 1crn
RefSeq protein:WP_010397534
Ensembl Gene:ENSDARG00000028099
Taxonomy: 6221, 941271

### Output

Output is a text file. The format depends on the database selected. In the case of sequence databases, a full database entry, that contains all the annotation, is retrieved. This data can be further translated into FASTA format with the Sequence format conversion tool.
