        Dear Maxim,

I can provide you just like that with some remote databank definitions we 
use at the BEN site. Put in your file .../share/EMBOSS/emboss.default :

DB NCBI_NUC [ type: N method: entrez format: genbank
              comment: 'nonredundant nuc. acid db at NCBI (by GI number)'
]

DB NCBI_PROT [ type: P method: entrez format: genbank
              comment: 'nonredundant protein db at NCBI (by GI number)'
]

DB EBI_EMBL [ type: N methodquery: external format: embl comment: 'EMBL at EBI'
              app: '/opt/sw/EBIWS/WSDbfetchClient.pl fetchData embl:%s'
]

DB EBI_EMBLSVA [ type: N methodquery: external format: embl
                 comment: 'EMBL Sequence Version Archive at EBI (by SV)'
                 app: '/opt/sw/EBIWS/WSDbfetchClient.pl fetchData emblsva:%s'
]

DB EBI_EMBLCDS [ type: N methodquery: external format: embl
                 comment: 'EMBL Coding Sequences at EBI (by ProteinID)'
                 app: '/opt/sw/EBIWS/WSDbfetchClient.pl fetchData emblcds:%s'
]

Note : EMBOSS does have a databank access method "dbfetch", but I never 
managed to get it working (can someone who did tell me how ?). Instead I 
use the script WSDbfetchClient.pl (see attachment). To make it work you 
will need to install in your Perl the module SOAP-Lite (version 0.60 and 
not higher !). You will have to adapt the "app" parameter here above and 
the "shebang line" of the script.

        Regards,
        Guy Bottu,
        Belgian EMBnet Node
