Struct NcbiClient 

pub struct NcbiClient { /* private fields */ }

Client for NCBI Entrez APIs (genes, proteins, nucleotides, SNPs)

Implementations

impl NcbiClient

pub fn new(api_key: Option<String>) -> Result<Self>

Arguments

• api_key - Optional NCBI API key (get from https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/account/) Without a key: 3 requests/second With a key: 10 requests/second

pub async fn search_genes( &self, query: &str, organism: Option<&str>, ) -> Result<Vec<SemanticVector>>

Search gene database

Arguments

• query - Search query (e.g., “BRCA1”, “alzheimer’s disease”)
• organism - Optional organism filter (e.g., “human”, “mouse”)

pub async fn get_gene(&self, gene_id: &str) -> Result<Option<SemanticVector>>

Get gene details by gene ID

pub async fn search_proteins(&self, query: &str) -> Result<Vec<SemanticVector>>

Search protein database

pub async fn search_nucleotide( &self, query: &str, ) -> Result<Vec<SemanticVector>>
