How to parse all the Zn-binding protein sequences from MetalPDB?

I would like to download all the zinc-binding protein sequences from MetalPDB database. But, I could not find any option there in the website to download all the zinc-binding sequences from the database. Therefore, kindly suggest me any ftp site or tool option to download the same.

Thank you in advance.

There is a flat database available on the site you linked above. It appears to be in XML format so you will need to likely parse that data.

Thank you GenoMax , I tried already tried what you have suggested (flat file). However, when I click over the flat file option, its not responding. I tried with different internet connections but end up with the same result. I do not know how to proceed further. If I manage to get uniprotID, then it is easy for me to fetch the sequences. but here i could not parse those ids also. could you please help me in this cause.
