Alterlab Uniprot

alterlab-ieu/alterlab-uniprot

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 bioservices instead. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
