To search tp53 homolog in homologene database -

handle = Entrez.esearch(db="homologene", term="tp53[gene name] AND Homo
sapiens[orgn]")
record = Entrez.read(handle)
handle = Entrez.efetch(db="homologene", id=record['IdList'])
record = handle.read()
print record

I think record is asn.1 format !! how can I read or convert it in the genes
protein table (as we see in the web result)
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/homologene/460

Thanks
