HGNC Gene Symbols Scraper

parseforge/hgnc-gene-symbols-scraper

Query the HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee database for approved human gene symbols, names, aliases, chromosomal location, gene family, RefSeq, Ensembl, OMIM, UniProt, and external links. Export to JSON, CSV, or Excel for bioinformatics, genomics research, and pharmaceutical pipelines.

ParseForge

UniProt Protein Sequence & Annotation Scraper

parseforge/uniprot-scraper

Export UniProt Knowledgebase entries — search Swiss-Prot by organism, keyword, gene, or any UniProt query, or fetch a single accession. Returns names, genes, organism, sequence length & molecular weight, keywords, comments, features, and PDB/RefSeq/Ensembl/KEGG cross-refs.

ParseForge

Ensembl Gene Lookup Scraper

parseforge/ensembl-gene-lookup-scraper

Resolve human gene symbols against the Ensembl REST API to fetch stable gene identifiers, chromosome location, strand, biotype, and description. Useful for variant annotation, RNA seq pipelines, and gene set enrichment workflows that need clean Ensembl mappings from a list of HGNC symbols.

ParseForge

Ensembl Genomics Scraper (Genes, Variants, Sequences)

parseforge/ensembl-genomics-scraper

Query the Ensembl genome reference for 200+ species. Look up genes by symbol or stable ID, list features in a genomic region, fetch DNA sequence, or resolve human variants (rsIDs). Returns biotype, coordinates, transcript IDs, descriptions, and assembly metadata.

ParseForge

NCBI Gene Records Scraper

benthepythondev/ncbi-gene-records-scraper

Collect NCBI Gene records and export gene id, query, source, scraped at as structured JSON, CSV or Excel data.

Ben

NCBI EUtils Gene Summary Scraper

parseforge/ncbi-eutils-gene-summary-scraper

Pull gene summaries from NCBI EUtils by Gene UID, returning official symbol, full name, aliases, organism, chromosome, map location, and description. Useful for annotating variant lists, building gene knowledge panels, and enriching bioinformatics dashboards with canonical NCBI metadata.

ParseForge

UniProt Protein Scraper

parseforge/uniprot-protein-scraper

Query the UniProt knowledgebase with any free text search to retrieve protein entries with accession identifiers, names, gene symbols, organism, sequence length, and functional annotations. Useful for proteomics research, bioinformatics pipelines, and structural biology cross referencing.

ParseForge

NCBI Gene Database Scraper

parseforge/ncbi-eutils-gene-scraper

Query NCBI Gene through Entrez syntax such as BRCA1[gene] AND human[orgn]. Returns gene symbol, description, organism, chromosome, map location, summary, aliases, and designations. Useful for genomics pipelines, target discovery, and clinical research across model organisms.
