How to download the .dat file of the UniProt Metazoa?

Hi,

I need the .dat file for the UniProt Metazoa. .dat has the EMBL format, which I need. But I don't see it here: https://www.uniprot.org/taxonomy/33208#

I can download the clade specific .dat files from here: https://www.uniprot.org/downloads. But I don't see the metazoan .dat file here.

Cab anybody help?

Cheers!!

The UniProt flat file format is not the same as the EMBL format even if it is quite close. So you might run into issues if your software expects real EMBL.

Go to this page: https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/?query=reviewed:yes%20taxonomy:33208 and click on the Download button. If you choose Text from the drop-down list for Format, you will get the data in EMBL format.
