In rbioapi: User-Friendly R Interface to Biologic Web Services' API

Get UniProt protein sequence features by accession

Description

Use this function to retrieve sequence annotations (features) of a protein by it's UniProt accession.

Usage

rba_uniprot_features(
  accession,
  types = NULL,
  categories = NULL,
  location = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

accession	UniProtKB primary or secondary accession.
types	Sequence annotation (Features) types. accepted values are: "INIT_MET", "SIGNAL", "PROPEP", "TRANSIT", "CHAIN", "PEPTIDE", "TOPO_DOM", "TRANSMEM", "DOMAIN", "REPEAT", "CA_BIND", "ZN_FING", "DNA_BIND", "NP_BIND", "REGION", "COILED", "MOTIF", "COMPBIAS", "ACT_SITE", "METAL", "BINDING", "SITE", "NON_STD", "MOD_RES", "LIPID", "CARBOHYD", "DISULFID", "CROSSLNK", "VAR_SEQ", "VARIANT", "MUTAGEN", "UNSURE", "CONFLICT", "NON_CONS", "NON_TER", "HELIX", "TURN", "STRAND" and/or "INTRAMEM". You can supply up to 20 types.
categories	Sequence annotation (Features) categories (subsection). accepted values are: "MOLECULE_PROCESSING", "TOPOLOGY", "SEQUENCE_INFORMATION", "STRUCTURAL", "DOMAINS_AND_SITES", "PTM", "VARIANTS" and/or "MUTAGENESIS". You can supply up to 8 categories.
location	(character) Filter the features by the amino acid position in the sequence(s). Provide the range as a character string with the format "begin-end", e.g. "35-70"
...	rbioapi option(s). See rba_options's arguments manual for more information on available options.

Value

A list in which you can find all of your given protein's sequence annotations in a sub-list named "features".
