Which RCSB database/s to download to enable search for PDB ID using UniProt gene name?

What have you tried? The README at the ID mapping entity on UniProt Downloads mentions that it maps UniProtKB IDs to PDB IDs.

I am aware of this - what I was looking for is a database at _RCSB_ that contains within its PDB record the gene name that the protein is encoded by. I am presently using a POST via PHP and curl to send a XML query with a gene name from which I obtain the 4-character PDB that it is matched to. I then use this to make another query via the NGL viewer to obtain the PBD structure. I would prefer to download the entire database but don't know which is the most appropriate one.
