Uniprot Database

Gives Claude direct access to UniProt's protein databases including UniProtKB, UniParc, and UniRef for retrieving curated biological data and running sequence lookups. Comes from DeepMind's science-skills collection and requires uv to be installed. It handles license notifications automatically by checking UniProt's terms and creating a local record in your workspace. This is straightforward infrastructure for bioinformatics work. If you're building anything that needs protein data or cross-referencing biological sequences, this beats writing your own API wrapper. The 980 installs and clean security audits suggest it's a solid implementation from a team that actually uses this stuff.
