PDBeSIFTS Get Best Structures

Get the best available PDB structures for a UniProt protein, ranked by coverage and resolution from PDBe SIFTS. Returns PDB IDs with chain mapping, resolution, experimental method (X-ray, cryo-EM, NMR), and UniProt sequence coverage. Essential for structural biologists to find the most suitable structure for a protein of interest. Example: P04637 (TP53) returns 641 structure entries, P00533 (EGFR) returns 633 entries, with X-ray and cryo-EM structures ranked by quality.
