Hi Genomeo,<br>
<br>
Taking the last entry as example:<br>
Hs.743764 refers to
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/UniGene/clust.cgi?UGID=5947187&TAXID=9606&SEARCH=Hs.743764">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/UniGene/clust.cgi?UGID=5947187&TAXID=9606&SEARCH=Hs.743764</a><br>
This is a human locus.<br>
The description means that this locus is similar to a gene in rat,
as it has not been fully annotated in human.<br>
<br>
I agree the description can be misleading, but it is imported
directly from NCBI as is, so there is not much we can do about it.<br>
<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Magali<br>

<div>If understand you correctly db_type and species are
therefore attributes of the query gene IDs not the returned
cross-reference ids. For my query IDs I see I define that
here:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>my $gene_adaptor = Bio::EnsEMBL::Registry->get_adaptor(
"human", "core", "gene" );<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have tried to lookup about 5000 human ensembl IDs and
found that for 256 I get cross mapping to other organisms. It
only happens for UniGene. For example for ENSG00000010244:</div>

<div bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"> Hi Genomeo,<br>
<br>
To find which attributes are available, the Ensembl
Doxygen documentation usually covers everything you
need.<br>
Looking at
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.ensembl.org/info/docs/Doxygen/core-api/classBio_1_1EnsEMBL_1_1Gene.html"
target="_blank">http://www.ensembl.org/info/docs/Doxygen/core-api/classBio_1_1EnsEMBL_1_1Gene.html</a><br>
will tell you that you can obtain the following from a
gene:<br>
<br>
$gene->source()<br>
$gene->analysis->logic_name()<br>
$gene->description()<br>
$gene->external_name()<br>
$gene->biotype()<br>
$gene->seq_region_start()<br>
$gene->seq_region_end()<br>
$gene->seq_region_name()<br>
$gene->seq_region_strand()<br>
$gene->display_id()<br>
<br>
When using the API, you should always know what
object_type you are using, as it allows you to use the
correct attributes.<br>
In this example, if you are using a Bio::EnsEMBL::Gene,
object_type is 'gene'<br>
<br>
For species and db_type as well, you need to know those
beforehand when using directly the perl API.<br>
They are the ones which will allow you to connect to the
correct database based on the data you are looking for.<br>
<br>
Regarding cross references to other organisms, do you
have any examples?<br>
Generally, we should be only mapping to other resources
for the same organism.<br>
For example, for pig, we will only assign cross
references to Uniprot pig proteins.<br>
<br>
The main exceptions I can think of are:<br>
- HGNC names<br>
Typically, if the coverage for a species is low (ie, not
all 20 odd thousand proteins have been submitted to
Uniprot or RefSeq), we will use HGNC names to fill in
the gaps.<br>
Where no name can be found and there is a homolog in
human, we use the same name as in human.<br>
- Ensembl translations<br>
For some low coverage species, annotations was provided
by projecting human annotation via a whole genome
alignment.<br>
For these models, we add an external reference to the
human translation which was used to build the model.<br>
<br>
<br>
Hope this helps,<br>
Magali

The REST server only display the
current/latest release.<br>
The release version can be found with this
endpoint:<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://beta.rest.ensembl.org/documentation/info/software"
target="_blank">http://beta.rest.ensembl.org/documentation/info/software</a><br>
<br>
To get more details with the Ensembl API,
you only need to update the
print_DBEntries method to display all the
attributes you are looking for.<br>
Compared to the output from REST, we have
the following:<br>
- display_id is $dbe->display_id()<br>
- primary_id is $dbe->primary_id()<br>
- version is $dbe->version()<br>
- description is $dbe->description()<br>
- dbname is $dbe->dbname()<br>
- synonyms is $dbe->get_all_synonyms()<br>
- info_type is $dbe->info_type()<br>
- info_text is $dbe->info_text()<br>
- db_display_name is
$dbe->db_display_name()<br>
<br>
You can chose what format the REST will
output.<br>
Details of all formats can be found in our
user guide:<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://beta.rest.ensembl.org/documentation/user_guide"
target="_blank">http://beta.rest.ensembl.org/documentation/user_guide</a><br>
For tab-delimited output,
content_type=text/x-gff3 is used, but it
is only available for the /feature
endpoint.<br>
<br>
There is no file in the Ensembl ftp dumps
that contains all the external references
produced.<br>

<div>Questions:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1. am I correct in saying
that the Rest code uses the
latest Ensembl release while the
API code uses the Ensembl
release currently installed as
part of the VM (I am using
release 74)?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2. Rest code gives more
extensive details (which I like)
compared to the perl API code.
Could you suggest a simple way
to use the API to get the same
details?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>3. The Rest code output
format. Is tab separated text
supported?<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>4. Is there a file in the
Ensembl ftp area which contains
pre generated detailed cross ref
mappings for all current Ensembl
genes?</div>
