Enhance 3D Protein Structure Viewer in cBioPortal using AlphaFold Data

This project enhances the 3D protein structure viewer in cBioPortal by integrating AlphaFold predicted structures alongside experimentally determined structures from PDB, expanding structural coverage for proteins lacking experimental data. I will extend the G2S backend to support AlphaFold metadata and residue mapping based on sequence alignment. The frontend will be updated to visualize both structure types and support mutation mapping and structure selection. Deliverables include backend API extensions, metadata integration and mapping, and frontend support for AlphaFold visualization.
