About UniProt MCP Server
A UniProt MCP server for language models and compatible applications to retrieve protein data. It supports research and information lookup across sequences, functional annotations, and related structures.
Key features
- 01Search proteins by name or gene
- 02Retrieve detailed protein information
- 03Fetch amino acid sequences
- 04Get functional annotations and GO terms
- 05Find related PDB structures
Use cases
- 01Find proteins associated with a disease
- 02Retrieve a protein's amino acid sequence
- 03Look up protein functions
- 04Search for known 3D structures
MCP support
The MCP server exposes UniProt search, protein details, sequences, functional annotations, and related structure lookup tools to Claude Desktop and other compatible clients.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
We haven’t collected a package or remote endpoint for this server. Follow the instructions in the project README.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.
Details
The maintainer has not added details yet. Check the README in the repository.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
