Using Entrez to get sequence and taxonomy

I am trying to get the amino acid sequence and the taxonomy data from the results of my CDART BLAST search using entrez. The problem I'm running into is that these entries come from different databases so they are formatted differently.

entrez blast

Post some examples.

Thanks, I previously downloaded a FASTA with entries looking like this from the included databases. Also when I research with the same parameters under CDART and try to view the proteins in an entrez list, It keeps giving me EPOST failed.

I was asking for example ID's you are trying to search with. If you already have the sequences then you could simply pull those out from that file.
