Hello all! I want to download dataset offered by MITOMAP. Here's what I want to download:
mtDNA Variants (includes mini insertions & deletions)
mtDNA Mutations with Reports of Disease-Associations
I don't know how to download those database(I want to add these information for my VCF annotation file.). I view the source code of web page and copy information in the table like:
["12276","<a href='/MITOMAP/GenomeLoci#MTTL2'>MT-TL2</a>","<a href='/MITOMAP/DiseaseList#CPEO'>CPEO</a>","G12276A","tRNA Leu (CUN)","-","+","Cfrm","MITOMAP<br><span style='display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;'><a href='/cgi-bin/mitotip?pos=12276&alt=A&quart=0'><u>Pathogenic</u></a> <i class='fa fa-arrow-up' style='color:red' aria-hidden='true'></i><i class='fa fa-arrow-up' style='color:red' aria-hidden='true'></i><i class='fa fa-arrow-up' style='color:red' aria-hidden='true'></i></span>","<a href='/cgi-bin/index_mitomap.cgi?title=RNA+Mutation+A+at+12276&pos=12276&ref=G&alt=A'>1</a>","<a href='/cgi-bin/print_ref_list?refs=8563,90835,90836&title=RNA+Mutation+G12276A' target='_blank'>3</a>"]
Then I write python script use regular expression to get information I want.
I know this could work, but also it's a very bad way. Is anybody has downloaded dataset from MITOMAP before? Or anyone can offer me better solutions? Thanks!
Hi, is your dataset here ? Mitomap Resources Alternatively, I would just email the authors, they have been very helpful to us in the past to share their public datasets.
Thanks, that's exactly what I want.
You could use the
print
view button on that page and then save the page to scrape the information off later on. It does appear that there is no easy way to download that data linked.Ok, that's what I am doing, thanks for you reply!
