Augmented Nature PDB
Provides access to the Protein Data Bank (PDB), offering information about 3D structures of biomolecules.
About
The Augmented Nature PDB server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that grants access to the Protein Data Bank (PDB), the global repository for 3D structural data of proteins, nucleic acids, and complex assemblies. It allows users to search, retrieve information, and download structure coordinates in various formats. The server integrates with RCSB PDB APIs and provides access to structure quality metrics and validation data, facilitating research in bioinformatics, drug discovery, and structural biology.
Key Features
- Download structure coordinates in multiple formats (PDB, mmCIF, mmTF, XML)
- Find PDB structures associated with a UniProt accession
- Retrieve detailed information for specific PDB structures
- Search for protein structures by keyword, protein name, or PDB ID
- 3 GitHub stars
- Obtain structure quality metrics and validation data
Use Cases
- Searching for insulin protein structures
- Finding PDB structures associated with a UniProt protein, such as P01308
- Downloading the PDB file for a specific structure, such as 1ABC
