get_structure
Retrieve AlphaFold structure prediction for a specific UniProt ID.
How to use it
get_structure is exposed by the AlphaFold MCP Server MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), and the get_structure tool becomes available to the model automatically. See the full listing for setup details and every tool this server provides.
