Koskamo

RCSB PDB MCP

An MCP server that allows LLM clients to search, inspect, and cross-reference Protein Data Bank structures. It integrates three RCSB APIs: the Search API for finding structures by keyword, attribute, sequence, chemistry, or 3D shape; the Data API for fetching entry, entity, assembly, and ligand details; and the Sequence Coordinates API for mapping sequences across PDB, UniProt, and NCBI.

Package and access
