fetch_uniprot_proteome function

Fetch proteome data from UniProt

Fetches proteome data from UniProt for the provided organism ID.

fetch_uniprot_proteome(
  organism_id,
  columns = c("accession"),
  reviewed = TRUE,
  timeout = 120,
  max_tries = 5
)

Arguments

• organism_id: a numeric value that specifies the NCBI taxonomy identifier (TaxId) for an organism.

• columns: a character vector of metadata columns that should be imported from UniProt (all possible columns can be found here. For cross-referenced database provide the database name with the prefix "xref_", e.g. "xref_pdb"). Note: Not more than one or two columns should be selected otherwise the function will not be able to efficiently retrieve the information. If more information is needed, fetch_uniprot()

  can be used with the IDs retrieved by this function.

• reviewed: a logical value that determines if only reviewed protein entries will be retrieved.

• timeout: a numeric value specifying the time in seconds until the download times out. The default is 60 seconds.

• max_tries: a numeric value that specifies the number of times the function tries to download the data in case an error occurs. The default is 2.

Returns

A data frame that contains all protein metadata specified in columns for the organism of choice.
