[Bioperl-l] Batch Entrez with Bio::DB:GenBank or Bio::DB:GenPept

[Brian Osborne]

Chris,

Yes, get_stream_by_Acc already does this.

my $db = Bio::DB::GenBank->new;
my $seqio = $db->get_Stream_by_acc(["M12345","AB123456"]);
while (my $seq = $seqio->next_seq){
	...
}

Subject: [Bioperl-l] Batch Entrez with Bio::DB:GenBank or Bio::DB:GenPept

Is there a way to use Batch Entrez via Bio::DB::GenBank or
Bio::DB::GenPept, or does get_Stream_by_acc() or similar methods
automatically retrieve in batch mode?  I want to retrieve ~1500-2000
protein sequences from GenBank, and I couldn't find a clear-cut way for
specifically asking for a batch retrieval.  Or do you recommend using
the Entrez web interface directly?
