The Pfam database is a large collection of protein domain families. Each family is represented by multiple sequence alignments and hidden Markov models (HMMs).
To return the accession and ID for a Pfam family, given either the ID or accession as input. Any of the following URLs will return the same simple XML document:
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/family/acc?id=Piwi&output;=xml
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/family/acc/Piwi?output=xml
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/family/id?output=xml&acc;=PF02171
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/family/id/Piwi?output=xml
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/family?entry=Piwi&output;=xml
You can retrieve a sub-set of the data in a Pfam-A family page as an XML document using any of the following styles of URL:
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/family?id=Piwi&output;=xml
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/family?output=xml&acc;=PF02171
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/family?entry=Piwi&output;=xml
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/family/Piwi?output=xml
The last two styles, using the entry parameter or an extended URL, accept either accessions or identifiers. The accession/ID is case-insensitive in all cases.
You can retrieve a list of all Pfam-A families in the latest Pfam release, either as an XML document or as a tab-delimited text file. Both formats contain the Pfam-A accession, Pfam-A identifier and description:
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/families?output=xml
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/families?output=text
You can also view the list in a web browser by removing the output=xml parameter from the URL.
You can retrieve a sub-set of the data in a protein page as an XML document using any of the following styles of URL:
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/protein?id=CANX_CHICK&output;=xml
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/protein?output=xml&acc;=P00789
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/protein?entry=P00789&output;=xml
http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/protein/P00789?output=xml
As for Pfam-A families, arguments are all case-insensitive and the entry parameter accepts either ID or accession.
