tooluniverse-protein-structure-retrieval

Protein structure retrieval from RCSB PDB, PDBe, AlphaFold, SWISS-MODEL, 3D-Beacons (cross-provider structure aggregator), and PDB-REDO (re-refined X-ray structures), with disambiguation, quality assessment (resolution, R-factor, pLDDT, coverage), and metadata. Distinguishes high-quality experimental (X-ray under 2 Angstrom) vs predicted vs homology-model vs medium-quality structures. Use for fetching protein structures, structure-quality comparison, batch model-availability checks across a gene list, checking every structure provider at once, and selecting structures for drug design or modeling.

# Protein Structure Data Retrieval

Retrieve protein structures with disambiguation, quality assessment, and comprehensive metadata.

**IMPORTANT**: Always use English terms in tool calls. Respond in the user's language.

**LOOK UP DON'T GUESS**: Never assume PDB IDs, resolution, or availability. Always query RCSB/PDBe and AlphaFold to confirm.

## Domain Reasoning

Not all structures are equal. X-ray <2 A is high-quality for drug design. Cryo-EM 3-4 A is good for fold but not side chains. AlphaFold is excellent for well-folded domains but unreliable for disordered regions. Always check pLDDT (AlphaFold) or resolution (experimental) before drawing conclusions.
