STRING-DB MCP
The STRING-DB MCP server provides tools to query protein-protein interaction networks across approximately 12,000 organisms. It supports resolving gene symbols to STRING identifiers, retrieving interaction partners, generating network images, performing functional enrichment analysis (GO, KEGG, etc.), and mapping homology relations.
