PDBe MCP

The PDBe MCP server provides three keyless tools to query the Protein Data Bank in Europe (EBI). It allows agents to retrieve PDB entry summaries, list molecules and entities within structures, and access SIFTS cross-database mappings to UniProt. This enables biological data analysis without authentication overhead.
