[Bioperl-l] Collecting genomic DNA sequences using Entrez IDs

[Chris Fields]

Bio::DB::EntrezGene and Bio::SeqIO::entrezgene are part of bioperl- 
core (I think they were added prior to the 1.5.1 release, but I'm not  
positive).  If possible you should try installing bioperl 1.5.2 or the  
latest code from CVS.

For directions on installing Bioperl for most OS's go here:
