Can we get gene information (such as gene HUGO symbol, molecular consequences, gene RefSeq Id) for a given rsID using ncbi eutils?

Dear all,

Can we get gene information (such as gene HUGO symbol, molecular consequences, gene RefSeq Id) for a given rsID using ncbi eutils?

For example, for rs760076932, can we get the following information? RNF130, intron variant

Thanks in advance, Burçak Otlu

rsid gene symbol gene refseq id ncbi eutils

I don't know about eutils, but you can convert the rs ID to a vcf file (using e.g. dbSNP batch converter) and use a tool such as variant effect predictor (VEP), snpeff or similar to get the desired information.
