## When to Use
- You need to search UniProtKB with Lucene-style queries (e.g., by gene name, organism, reviewed status).
- You want to fetch the full details of a specific protein entry by UniProt accession (e.g., `P12345`).
- You need to map identifiers between databases (e.g., gene names, Ensembl IDs, RefSeq IDs ↔ UniProt accessions).
- You are building pipelines that require automated protein annotation retrieval in JSON/TSV/FASTA formats.
- You need a lightweight client that talks directly to UniProt’s REST API without additional SDKs.
## Key Features
- **Protein search** via UniProtKB REST endpoint using Lucene query syntax.
- **Entry retrieval** by accession with selectable output formats.
- **Identifier mapping** between supported source/target databases using UniProt ID mapping service.
