What is the input file format for Batch Entrez?

Hello,

I want to use Batch Entrez to get some nucleotide fasta files.

I have a short list of GenBank Accession numbers:

GCUN01014008.1

GCUN01005433.1

GCUN01015996.1

But when I upload the text file with these three lines to Batch Entrez, I get this error:

The following records can't be retrieved:

Id=GCUN01014008.1: nuccore: Wrong UID GCUN01014008.1

Id=GCUN01005433.1: nuccore: Wrong UID GCUN01005433.1

Id=GCUN01015996.1: nuccore: Wrong UID GCUN01015996.1

Result is empty. Can't proceed to Entrez

So, what could be the problem?

Hello,

You have to delete the last 2 characters. From the point to the end, like this:

GCUN01014008

GCUN01005433

GCUN01015996
