Arguments

id

A character vector, as the protein ID(s).

from

The database, one of 'uniprot', 'kegg', 'pdb'.

type

The returned protein format, one of fasta, pdb, aaseq.

parallel

An integer, the parallel parameter, indicates how many process the user would like to use for retrieving the data (using RCurl), default is 5. For regular cases, we recommend a number less than 20.

Value

A length of id character list, each element containing the corresponding protein sequence(s) or file(s).
