UniProtRef Search Keywords

Search the UniProt keyword controlled vocabulary. Keywords are standardized terms used to annotate protein functions, biological processes, cellular components, diseases, and technical features in UniProt. Returns keyword IDs, categories, definitions, and protein counts. Example: searching 'kinase' returns KW-0418 (Kinase), KW-0723 (Serine/threonine-protein kinase), etc. with their definitions and how many proteins carry each keyword.
