Download Uniref ID though wget

Hi,

I would like to download the UNIREF 100 id

http://www.uniprot.org/uniref/

and get at the end a file with:

Cluser ID <tab> Common taxon ID

We can download it though the button "Download" but since the file will be big (I think). I am wondering if there is a way to download it though "wget". I would like to run it in my server and let it download all the night.

uniref

Possibly. From this top level directory. Select UniRef100 if that is what you want. You would need to do some reformatting if you need the data in some specific format that is not available there.

Here is a preview (first ten entries from UniRef50): http://www.uniprot.org/uniref/?query=identity:0.5&limit=10&format=tab&columns=id,commontaxonid of tab-separated result view, which is downloadable.

For a compressed download, try http://www.uniprot.org/uniref/?query=identity:0.5&format=tab&columns=id,commontaxonid&compress=yes (63 MB)
