What problem does it solve?
Makes it quick and easy to retrieve protein sequences, functional annotations, and accession details from the UniProt database without manually navigating REST endpoints or parsing raw JSON.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Gene-centered search: Query UniProt by gene name (default human, reviewed/Swiss-Prot) to find accession IDs and canonical proteins.
- Entry retrieval: Fetch full UniProt entries by accession to obtain protein names, gene names, sequence length, function comments, and direct links.
- FASTA extraction: Download FASTA-formatted sequences for downstream analyses like BLAST or structure prediction.
- Use case: Researcher asks what a gene product does and receives accession, a short function summary, sequence length, and a link to the UniProt entry.
Quick Start
Get UniProt entries for TP53 (human) and summarize accession, protein name, gene, organism, length, and a one-sentence function summary.
