[BioPython] BLAST results and more title information

[Aaron Zschau]

I'm trying to figure out how to get the full description line from my 
blast search results


I run the following command, where f_record contains a protein string:

b_results = NCBIWWW.qblast('blastp', 'nr', f_record, format_type="text")

and get a blast file containing the following lines (full file also 
attached)


emb|CAA70306.1| hypoxia-inducible factor one alpha [Mus musculus]    
1311   0.0
gb|AAC52730.1| hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha

emb|CAA70305.1| hypoxia-inducible factor one alpha [Mus musculus]    
1291   0.0


Is there an easy way to get more information out of the title 
information instead of being cut off (e.g. getting the full line 
instead of "hypoxia inducible factor 1, alpha subunit [Mus ... " since 
some results have longer title lines and sometimes push the species 
info out of view.

thanks,

Aaron Zschau
