MyGene.info MCP
A community MCP server provided by Pipeworx that interfaces with the MyGene.info API to perform biological gene annotation. It allows AI agents to query gene information by name or ID, retrieve batch annotations for multiple identifiers, access metadata, and fetch species taxonomy details, joining data from NCBI, Ensembl, UniProt, KEGG, and OMIM.
