NAME

WWW::Search::HGNC - Access HGNC's database of proteins

SYNOPSIS

use WWW::Search;
my $search = new WWW::Search('HGNC');

my @hgnc_ids = [ 9092, 12043 ];
$search->native_query( \@hgnc_ids );

while( my $prot = $search->next_result ) {
  printf "Approved symbol: %s\n", $prot->{approved_symbol};
  printf "Approved name: %s\n", $prot->{approved_name};
  printf "HGNC ID: %s\n", $prot->{hgnc_id};
  # ... etc.
}

DESCRIPTION

The HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee (HGNC) maintains a database of human proteins (http://www.gene.ucl.ac.uk/nomenclature/). This module provides access to protein information via the WWW::Search interface.
