[Bioperl-l] How to parse DBLINK Project linetype in Genbank file

[Scott Markel]

Chris,

Looking at the code for Bio::SeqIO::genbank dblink annotations are created
for DBSOURCE lines, not for DBLINK lines.  If you use your script on
NP_042883, for example, you'll see a dblink annotation.  A case-sensitive
grep on DBLINK shows no matches in genbank.pm, so those lines don't
currently lead to any annotations.

Subject: [Bioperl-l] How to parse DBLINK Project linetype in Genbank file


I have some Genbank files (from genome sequences) with a DBLINK line type
listing the Entrez genome project id.  Is there a way to parse this line?  
I can't seem to find it among the Annotation objects using bioperl 1.6.0
(printing all annotations or just dblinks below)

my @annotations = $so->annotation->get_Annotations('dblink');  # nothing
