Dear Thomas,<br>
<br>
My BioMart perl script is using the following mart XML config file:<br>
<br>
<pre><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
</pre>
<pre><!DOCTYPE MartRegistry>
</pre>
<pre><MartRegistry>
</pre>
<pre> <MartURLLocation
</pre>
<pre> name = "ensembl"
</pre>
<pre> displayName = "ensembl"
</pre>
<pre> host = "<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.biomart.org/">www.biomart.org</a>"
</pre>
<pre> port = "80"
</pre>
<pre> visible = "1"
</pre>
<pre> default = ""
</pre>
<pre> includeDatasets = "hsapiens_gene_ensembl"
</pre>
<pre> martUser = ""
</pre>
<pre> />
</pre>
<pre></MartRegistry>
</pre>
However, I'm getting BioMart queries from hg19 and not hg38. Does
the default port '80' still working on hg19? how can I specify I
would like to use hg38 biomart service.<br>
<br>
On the other hand, it's always useful to know how to query older
Ensembl versions with Biomart. However using $action=clean with conf
file of ensembl 75 archive it's leading me to massive amounts of RAM
consumption in my Perl script.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Guillermo.<br>

Dear Guillermo,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you are using:</div>
<div>1) the biomart-perl/scripts/webExample.pl script and an xml
file</div>
<div>You can change the path to the biomart website in the
following line:</div>
<blockquote style="margin: 0 0 0 40px; border: none; padding:
0px;">
<div>my $path="<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://www.biomart.org/biomart/martservice?">http://www.biomart.org/biomart/martservice?</a>";</div>
</blockquote>
<div>With the path to our Ensembl release 75 archive:</div>
<blockquote style="margin: 0 0 0 40px; border: none; padding:
0px;">
<div>my $path="<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://feb2014.archive.ensembl.org/biomart/martservice?">http://feb2014.archive.ensembl.org/biomart/martservice?</a>";</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
2) A BioMart perl script
<div>a) You first need to edit your configuration file in
"biomart-perl/conf/martURLLocation.xml" and paste the content of
the mart registry page for the Ensembl release 75 archive
website: <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://feb2014.archive.ensembl.org/biomart/martservice?type=registry">http://feb2014.archive.ensembl.org/biomart/martservice?type=registry</a></div>
<div>b) Then edit your script and make sure that "my $confFile"
variable is looking at the martURLLocation.xml configuration
file in biomart-perl/conf</div>
<div>c) Finally, make sure to update the following line in your
script:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>my $action='cached';</div>
<div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>with:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>my $action='clean';</div>
<div>
<div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The first run of your script on Ensembl 75 might be a
bit slow as BioMart will cache some data from the BioMart
website.</div>
<div>Once you have run your script with the action variable
set to "clean", you can set the variable to "cached"
again.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Hope this helps,</div>
<div>Best regards,</div>
<div>Thomas</div>

I would like to know how to specify BioMart Perl code to
query against older Ensembl version (ie:75) and not
latest (I believe used by default).<br>

Thank you.<br>
