[Bioperl-l] Accession Nuber to Genbank Record (Isolation Source)

[Brian Osborne]

Shalabh,

I see. I think you could use EUtils then. Take a look at these:

http://www.bioperl.org/wiki/HOWTO:EUtilities_Cookbook

http://www.bioperl.org/wiki/HOWTO:EUtilities_Web_Service

I'm not an expert on these, and I do not know if one can ask for just a tag value ("isolation_source"). Getting a tag value from the downloaded Genbank entry is not difficult though, that Feature-Annotation HOWTO shows you how.
