bc_get_protein_domains

Retrieve detailed protein domain architecture and InterPro matches for functional insights. Input a protein ID to access domain information, optional structural details, and species-specific filtering. Use with UniProt ID for accurate results.

Instructions

Get domain architecture and InterPro matches for a specific protein.

This function retrieves all InterPro domain matches for a given protein, providing insight into the protein's functional domains and architecture.

To get the protein's UniProt ID, use the get_uniprot_id_by_protein_symbol tool first.

Args: protein_id (str): The protein identifier or accession (e.g., "P04637" or "CYC_HUMAN"). source_db (str, optional): The protein database source. Defaults to "uniprot". include_structure_info (bool, optional): Whether to include structural information. Defaults to False. species_filter (str, optional): Taxonomy ID to filter results (e.g., "9606" for human). Defaults to None.

Returns: dict: Protein domain information including InterPro matches, domain architecture, and optional structural data

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
