How can I find gene cluster containing certain gene?

I ran antiSMASH to get gene cluster data from WGS. But I couldn't find certain cluster that described on prior study. So I want to find gene cluster which contains certain protein sequence (from NCBI) by homology. I think blast program will make it, but blast each gene cluster one by one will take a lot of time. I can't figure out simple way to blast antiSMASH output data. Can you recommend any python code or program to make it simply?

finding a gene cluster can be done by using k-means clustering machine learning algorithm. this clustering algorithm is the most popular in machine learning projects workflow today. in fact, i'm writing a blog paper about this topic now. i think, it will be published by the end of this month. let me know how can i help?

Are you writing a blog post about finding gene clusters in antiSMASH using machine learning or general clustering of genes using k-means? If it's the latter, you're spamming posts with irrelevant links. Please stop doing this or your account will be suspended. Like I said before, add a Blog type post instead.

this post does not include any irrelevant blog paper links at all. thank you for letting me know.

Blast the gene against the whole WGS to get a location, then just find that location using the antiSMASH summary/output?
