Batch retrieval
Select the Retrieve tab of the toolbar to download a list of UniProt entries:
- Enter the UniProt identifiers into the form field or upload them from a file.
- Click the Retrieve button.
The following kinds of UniProt identifiers are supported:
| P00750 | UniProtKB entry |
| P00750-2 | UniProtKB entry isoform sequence |
| P00750[39-81] | UniProtKB sequence range |
| A4_HUMAN | UniProtKB entry name |
| UPI0000000001 | UniParc entry |
| UniRef100_P00750 | UniRef entry |
If you want to retrieve entries based on a list of identifiers from external databases, you must first use our database identifier mapping service to map them to UniProt identifiers.
Instead of entering identifiers into the form, you can mark sequences using the checkboxes found in various places such as:
- UniProtKB, UniRef and UniParc search results
- the Sequences and Sequence annotation sections in UniProtKB entries
- the history of a UniProtKB entry
- BLAST results
Once one or more sequences have been marked, the Retrieve button in the green bar becomes available:

After you have submitted your data, you are forwarded to a download page that lists the available formats. Note that if you mix different kinds of identifiers, the choice of formats will be limited to the greatest common denominator (usually FASTA).
Jobs have unique identifiers, which (depending on the job type) can be used in queries (e.g. to get the intersection of two sequence similarity searches). Job identifiers and the related data are kept for 7 days, and are then deleted.
