Downloading a 'Special selection' file containing all human UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot entries

We maintain a file containing all human UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot entries. This file is updated at every biweekly release of UniProt and can be downloaded in one of the following manners:
  • FTP download: connect to our anonymous ftp server ftp.expasy.org,
    go to /databases/uniprot/current_release/knowledgebase/taxonomic_divisions and
    retrieve the file uniprot_sprot_human.dat.gz.
    or
  • HTTP download: press 'shift' on your keyboard while clicking on this link in order to avoid downloading this huge file into your browser window. This will prompt you for a filename, and once downloaded, you will need to uncompress it.
    or
  • Use a mirroring program which automatically retrieves the file at regular intervals.
