Capture gene name from NCBI for a protein accession

Question

[ma23]

Hi,

I have a .csv file that contains a list of protein accessions. I need to add in every row the gene name that corresponds to each protein. I can make it by simple iteration by all proteins using a swiss-prot data base. But this method takes too much time. Are there any tools or libraries that can help me to capture the gene names from ncbi ?

Can't you simply plug it into https://www.uniprot.org/uploadlists/ ?

No, it can't handle my file.

Can you elaborate, please? - which types of protein accessions (?); which gene names do you want? There are many annotation databases in existence.
