python，通过坐标从DAS获取序列

，通过坐标获得DNA序列

网址：

示例文件：

<DASDNA>
  <SEQUENCE id="chr20" start="30037832" stop="30038060" version="1.00">
  <DNA length="229">
    gtggcacccaaagatgctggaatctttatggcaaatgccgttacagatgc            
    tccaagaaggaaagagtctatgtttactgcataaataataaaatgtgctg     
    cgtgaagcccaagtaccagccaaaagaaaggtggtggccattttaactgc 
    tttgaagcctgaagccatgaaaatgcagatgaagctcccagtggattccc 
    acactctatcaataaacacctctggctga
  </DNA>
  </SEQUENCE>
</DASDNA>

我想从数千个这样的URL中获取序列部分，我应该怎么做？ 我试着将数据写入文件并解析文件，它工作正常，但是有没有办法直接解析类似xml的字符串？我尝试了其他帖子的一些例子，但都不起作用

在这里，我添加了我的解决方案。感谢下面的两个答案。

解决方案1:

def getSequence2(chromosome, start, end):
    base = 'http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/das/hg19/dna?segment='
    url = base + chromosome + ':' + str(start) + ',' + str(end)
    doc = etree.parse(url,parser=etree.XMLParser())
    if doc != '':
        sequence = doc.xpath('SEQUENCE/DNA/text()')[0].replace('\n','')
    else:
        sequence = 'THE SEQUENCE DOES NOT EXIST FOR GIVEN COORDINATES'
    return sequence

def getSequence1(chromosome, start, end):
    base = 'http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/das/hg19/dna?segment='
    url = base + chromosome + ':' + str(start) + ',' + str(end)
    xml = urllib2.urlopen(url).read()
    if xml != '':
        w = open('temp.xml', 'w')
        w.write(xml)
        w.close()
        dom = parse('temp.xml')
        data = dom.getElementsByTagName('DNA')
        sequence = data[0].firstChild.nodeValue.replace('\n','')
    else: 
        sequence = 'THE SEQUENCE DOES NOT EXIST FOR GIVEN COORDINATES'
    return sequence

解决方案2:

def getSequence2(chromosome, start, end):
    base = 'http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/das/hg19/dna?segment='
    url = base + chromosome + ':' + str(start) + ',' + str(end)
    doc = etree.parse(url,parser=etree.XMLParser())
    if doc != '':
        sequence = doc.xpath('SEQUENCE/DNA/text()')[0].replace('\n','')
    else:
        sequence = 'THE SEQUENCE DOES NOT EXIST FOR GIVEN COORDINATES'
    return sequence

def getSequence1(chromosome, start, end):
    base = 'http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/das/hg19/dna?segment='
    url = base + chromosome + ':' + str(start) + ',' + str(end)
    xml = urllib2.urlopen(url).read()
    if xml != '':
        w = open('temp.xml', 'w')
        w.write(xml)
        w.close()
        dom = parse('temp.xml')
        data = dom.getElementsByTagName('DNA')
        sequence = data[0].firstChild.nodeValue.replace('\n','')
    else: 
        sequence = 'THE SEQUENCE DOES NOT EXIST FOR GIVEN COORDINATES'
    return sequence

当然，他们需要导入一些必要的库

使用Python XML解析库，例如，使用该解析器加载XML文件，然后使用选择器（例如使用XPath）获取所需的节点/元素。

谢谢您的回答，我得到了想要的。

>>> from lxml import etree
>>> doc = etree.parse("http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/das/hg19/dna?segment=chr20:30037432,30038060",parser=etree.XMLParser())
>>> doc.xpath('SEQUENCE/DNA/text()')
