RCSBGraphQL Get Structure Summary

Get comprehensive structure summary for one or more PDB entries using the RCSB PDB Data API (GraphQL). Returns title, resolution, molecular weight, experimental method, deposition/release dates, primary citation (PubMed ID, journal, year), atom count, entity counts, and unit cell dimensions. Supports batch queries for multiple PDB IDs at once. Use this when you need detailed metadata about specific PDB structures beyond what basic PDB tools provide.
