GET homology/symbol/:species/:symbol

Retrieves homology information (orthologues) by symbol

Parameters

Required

NameTypeDescriptionDefaultExample Values
species String Species name/alias - brugia_malayi_prjna10729
symbol String Symbol or display name of a gene - Bm994

Optional

NameTypeDescriptionDefaultExample Values
aligned Boolean Return the aligned string if true. Otherwise, return the original sequence (no insertions) 1 -
callback String Name of the callback subroutine to be returned by the requested JSONP response. Required ONLY when using JSONP as the serialisation method. Please see the user guide. - randomlygeneratedname
external_db String Filter by external database - EntrezGene
format Enum(full,condensed) Layout of the response full -
sequence Enum(none, cdna, protein) The type of sequence to bring back. Setting it to none results in no sequence being returned protein -
target_species String Filter by species. Supports all species aliases - brugia_malayi_prjna10729
target_taxon Integer Filter by taxon - 6279
6279
type Enum(orthologues, paralogues, projections, all) The type of homology to return from this call. Projections are orthology calls defined between alternative assemblies and the genes shared between them. Useful if you need only one type of homology back from the service all -
