alterlab-uniprot
From the author
Provide direct REST API access to UniProt (Swiss-Prot/TrEMBL) for protein sequence searches, FASTA retrieval, functional annotations (GO terms, domains), and cross-database ID mapping. Use when looking up a protein entry, fetching a protein FASTA sequence, or mapping accessions between databases over raw HTTP/REST; for EXPERIMENTAL 3D structures prefer alterlab-pdb, for AI-PREDICTED 3D structures prefer alterlab-alphafold-db, for protein-protein interaction networks prefer alterlab-string-db, and for Python workflows spanning many databases prefer alterlab-bioservices instead. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.

- uniprot-databaseforyourhealth111-pixel/Vibe-SkillsDirect REST API access to UniProt. Protein searches, FASTA retrieval, ID mapping, Swiss-Prot/TrEMBL. For broader biological evidence lookup across databases, use bio-database-evidence. Use this for direct HTTP/REST work or UniProt-specific control.Data★ 3.8K
- uniprot-protein-databasejaechang-hits/SciAgent-SkillsQuery UniProt REST API: search by gene/protein name, fetch FASTA, map IDs (Ensembl, PDB, RefSeq), access Swiss-Prot annotations. Use bioservices for multi-DB access; alphafold-database-access for structures.Data★ 383
- alterlab-interproAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsQuery the EMBL-EBI InterPro REST API for protein family, domain, and functional-site annotations integrated from member databases (Pfam, PANTHER, PRINTS, SMART, SUPERFAMILY, CDD, ProSite, NCBIfam, and others). Use when predicting protein function, analyzing or comparing domain architecture, classifying a protein by family or homologous superfamily, resolving a Pfam/InterPro accession, or mapping a protein's signatures to GO terms. Not for raw UniProt entry/FASTA retrieval or AlphaFold 3D structures. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.Science★ 78
- alterlab-alphafold-dbAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsAccess the AlphaFold DB of 240M+ AI-PREDICTED protein structures (v6, plus precomputed homodimer/heterodimer complexes) — retrieve models by UniProt accession, download PDB/mmCIF files, and analyze prediction confidence metrics (pLDDT, PAE). Use when a UniProt ID needs a computationally predicted 3D structure or when no experimental structure exists, for homology modeling, protein engineering, or structure-based drug discovery; for EXPERIMENTALLY determined structures (X-ray, cryo-EM, NMR) prefer alterlab-pdb, to fold a NEW sequence or complex yourself prefer alterlab-alphafold, and for protein sequences, annotations, or accession ID mapping prefer alterlab-uniprot instead. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.Science★ 78
- alterlab-pdbAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsAccess the RCSB Protein Data Bank (PDB) for EXPERIMENTALLY determined 3D structures (X-ray, cryo-EM, NMR) of proteins and nucleic acids — searching by text, sequence, or structure similarity and downloading coordinates in PDB/mmCIF format with metadata. Use when retrieving a structure by PDB ID, running sequence or structure similarity searches, or obtaining experimental coordinates for structural biology and drug discovery; for AI-PREDICTED structures of proteins lacking experimental data prefer alterlab-alphafold-db, and for protein sequences, annotations, or accession ID mapping prefer alterlab-uniprot instead. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.Science★ 78
- interpro-databasejaechang-hits/SciAgent-SkillsQuery InterPro REST API for protein domain architecture, family classification, and member-DB integration. Search entries, retrieve a protein's domains, list family members, get taxonomic distribution, link to PDB. Unifies Pfam, PANTHER, PIRSF, PRINTS, PROSITE, SMART, CDD, NCBIfam. Use uniprot-protein-database for sequences; pdb-database for 3D structures.Data★ 383
