Ensembl
Provides seamless access to the Ensembl REST API for genomic data, comparative genomics, and biological annotations.
About
This server enables seamless access to Ensembl's vast genomic database through a standardized Model Context Protocol (MCP) interface. It empowers users to retrieve detailed gene and transcript information, extract diverse sequence data, perform comparative genomics, analyze genetic variants, and access regulatory features across multiple species. By standardizing access to Ensembl's extensive resources, it makes complex genomic queries accessible, especially for natural language processing tools like Claude Desktop.
