Endpoints

The Folding API provides several categories of endpoints:

Core Folding Endpoints

Fold

post

Fold with the Bittensor network using a PDB ID from RCSB or PDBE.

This endpoint is for folding proteins that are already available in the RCSB or PDBE databases. The PDB ID must be specified in the query parameters.

Body

Represents a request to a validator.

pdb_idstringOptional

The PDB identifier for the selected response source.

Default: 1ubq
sourcestring · enumOptional

The source of the folding request from two recognized databases.

Default: rcsbPossible values:
ffstringOptional

The force field for the selected response source.

Default: charmm36.xml
waterstringOptional

The water model for the selected response source.

Default: charmm36/water.xml
boxstring · enumRequired

The box type for the selected response source.

Possible values:
temperaturenumberRequired

The temperature for the selected response source.

frictionnumberRequired

The friction coefficient for the selected response source.

epsilonnumberRequired

The base epsilon that should be used for the challenge. Represented in %/100

validator_uidsinteger[]Required

The validator identifier for the selected response source.

Utility Endpoints

get

Search for PDB IDs in the database.

This endpoint searches through the pdb_ids.pkl file and returns a list of matching PDB IDs. The search uses simple substring matching to find PDB IDs that contain the query string. Results are sorted by position of the match (matches at the beginning rank higher).

Each PDB ID is returned with its source (rcsb or pdbe). Supports pagination through page and page_size parameters.
