Foldseek
Search protein structures at sequence-search speed
Foldseek makes structure search as fast as sequence search by encoding backbone geometry into a structural alphabet (3Di). It can search the entire AlphaFold DB in seconds.
Example
1foldseek easy-search query.pdb targetDB result.m8 tmp
A free web server lets you search AlphaFold DB and the PDB without installing anything.
