I'm trying to build local gene synteny to identify homologs between different species. To do that, I've been accessing each individual gene of interest, going into gene view in NCBI and downloading the CSV file for a region around the gene including about 5-7 genes, and then I have to manually name them in excel by looking for their NCBI Gene ID numbers.
This has proven quite tedious and time consuming for large extent of accessions. And I'm convinced someone has a better way to do this. Are there any tools available that can help me with the efficiency of my method?
