Get Snp Position From Name With Web Service (Ncbi 36 And 37)
Are there any GET/POST web services for getting the chromosome position of a named SNP? i.e. send "rs2886331" - need to get back Chr1 201100526
I've tried EUtils http://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/efetch.fcgi?db=snp&id=2886331&report=XML But it only returns results for NCBI build 37
thanks,

Pretty sure this is answered in this thread here Ncbi Esearch :Searching For Snp/Genes/... At In A Given Segment Chr:Start-End ?
precisely. a quick search through this site, or even a quick look to the "related queries" that appear before sending your question, may already contain the answer to some of your doubts.
Errr... not precisely as far as I can tell.
The linked question suggest Biomart - but it doesn't seem that biomart supports NCBI36 (I would be happy to be shown incorrect) I was hoping for a RESTful service that could give results for a SNP position from both NCBI36 and NCBI37
