Web Service API Exploration

• We were assigned the database NCBI Gene, which uses XML

Notes

GRNSight Tests:

• I used the 21-genes_31-edges_Schade-data_estimation_output.graphml, 21-genes_31-edges_Schade-data_estimation_output.sif, and 21-genes_31-edges_Schade-data_estimation_output.xlsx files for the tests.
• My partner used the same files as me so that we could confirm our results
• I checked with my partner to make sure that he got the same results for each test as I did.

API Exploration:

• We started by using this Searching a Database page
• We used the general search link: https://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/esearch.fcgi?db=<database>&term=<query>
  • The <database> we were looking in was gene.
  • The <query> is whatever gene you are looking for.
• The example we used first was https://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/esearch.fcgi?db=gene&term=pbs2
  • This gave 539 results, so we had to narrow this down to genes contained within one organism, Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
• To narrow down, we added the organism name, Saccharomyces cerevisiae to the term field, so that the URL became: https://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/esearch.fcgi?db=gene&term=pbs2+AND+Saccharomyces+cerivisiae
  • This did narrow the results to 492, but did not get us what we wanted.
• We searched the Searching a Database page again and found that adding bracketed categories to the terms would give us the results we wanted, so the next URL we tried was: https://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/esearch.fcgi?db=gene&term=pbs2[gene]+AND+Saccharomyces+cerevisiae[Organism]
  • This gave only one result, with the ID for PBS2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which was 853313.
• We then tried this again replacing the "pbs2" term with other genes.
  • This worked to give their IDs as well.
• The final step was to take the gene ID from that result page and use it to link to the page for that gene, we used the NCBI URL found in the ajax starter files to do this.
  • We used this link: https://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/esearch.fcgi?db=gene&id=<query>
    • The <query> is the gene ID
• For PBS2, the link from the ID result page is: https://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/esearch.fcgi?db=gene&id=853313
