OMA Resolve Xref
Resolve a gene name, gene symbol, UniProt entry name, or any cross-reference identifier to OMA protein entries. This is the entry point into the OMA toolchain when you only have a common identifier (e.g. 'BRCA2' or 'MED4_HUMAN') rather than a UniProt accession or OMA ID. OMA_get_protein only accepts a UniProt accession (P04637) or OMA ID (HUMAN31534); use this tool first to obtain the entry_nr / oma_id / genome for the gene of interest, then feed the oma_id into OMA_get_protein, OMA_get_ortholo…
Overview
Resolve a gene name, gene symbol, UniProt entry name, or any cross-reference identifier to OMA protein entries. This is the entry point into the OMA toolchain when you only have a common identifier (e.g. 'BRCA2' or 'MED4_HUMAN') rather than a UniProt accession or OMA ID. OMA_get_protein only accepts a UniProt accession (P04637) or OMA ID (HUMAN31534); use this tool first to obtain the entry_nr / oma_id / genome for the gene of interest, then feed the oma_id into OMA_get_protein, OMA_get_orthologs, OMA_get_protein_go, etc. Example: search='MED4_HUMAN' returns entry_nr 24423700, oma_id HUMAN17018, species Homo sapiens (taxon 9606); search='BRCA2' returns matching OMA entries across species.
