[Bioperl-l] unigene object from blast report

[Sean Davis]

Jack,

I don't think this has been answered yet, but I don't think there is an easy
to do this "directly" from bioperl.  However, the file Hs.gb_cid_lid (for
human) maps genbank accession to cluster id (and library id), so you can
download it (ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/repository/UniGene/), read the first
two fields into a hash, and voila, you have your mapping.  Note that the
cluster ids do not have the two-letter species code.
