UniProt MCP
The UniProt MCP server provides six tools to query the UniProtKB protein sequence and function database. It supports searching by gene or organism, fetching entries by accession, searching reference proteomes, looking up taxonomy IDs, retrieving keyword definitions, and summarizing protein features like domains and active sites.
Package and access
