uniprot-database
Direct REST API access to UniProt. Protein searches, FASTA retrieval, ID mapping, Swiss-Prot/TrEMBL. For Python workflows with multiple databases, prefer bioservices (unified interface to 40+ services). Use this for direct HTTP/REST work or UniProt-specific control.

# UniProt Database
## Overview
UniProt is the world's leading comprehensive protein sequence and functional information resource. Search proteins by name, gene, or accession, retrieve sequences in FASTA format, perform ID mapping across databases, access Swiss-Prot/TrEMBL annotations via REST API for protein analysis.
## When to Use This Skill
This skill should be used when:
- Searching for protein entries by name, gene symbol, accession, or organism
- Retrieving protein sequences in FASTA or other formats
- Mapping identifiers between UniProt and external databases (Ensembl, RefSeq, PDB, etc.)
- Accessing protein annotations including GO terms, domains, and functional descriptions
- Batch retrieving multiple protein entries efficiently
