gget
Fast CLI/Python queries to 20+ bioinformatics databases. Use for quick lookups: gene info, BLAST/BLAT, viral sequence downloads, AlphaFold structures, enrichment analysis, OpenTargets, COSMIC, CELLxGENE, and 8cube mouse specificity/expression data. Best for interactive exploration and simple queries. For batch processing or advanced BLAST use biopython; for multi-database Python workflows use bioservices.

- Compatibility
- Requires Python >=3.8 and gget 0.30.5-compatible APIs. Optional setup modules may install scientific dependencies that lag the newest Python releases; use Python 3.9 or 3.10 if `gget setup cellxgene` or `gget setup alphafold` fails.
