Description

Get a gene data report for a gene ortholog set by GeneID in JSON format.

Parameters (5)

gene_id (integer, path, required)

One or more NCBI GeneIDs

page_size (integer, query, optional, default: 20)

The maximum number of gene reports to return. Default is 20 and maximum is 1000. If the number of results exceeds the page size, `page_token` can be used to retrieve the remaining results.

page_token (string, query, optional)

A page token is returned when the results count exceeds `page size`. Use this token along with previous request parameters to retrieve the next page of results. When `page_token` is empty, all results have been retrieved.

returned_content (?, query, optional)

Return complete gene reports, or abbreviated reports with either GeneIDs only or GeneIDs, transcript and protein counts.

taxon_filter (array, query, optional)

Limit to genes from the specified NCBI Taxonomy ID or name (common or scientific) at any taxonomic rank.
