Ensembl REST API MCP — vertebrate genomes, gene annotations, sequences, comparative genomics, variation. Keyless.

Tools

  • lookup(id, expand?) — by stable id (gene/transcript/exon/translation)
  • lookup_symbol(species, symbol) — gene by symbol within a species
  • xrefs(species, symbol) — external cross-references for a gene symbol
  • sequence(id, type?) — DNA / cDNA / CDS / protein sequence
  • homology(species, symbol_or_id, target_species?) — homology mappings
  • variation(species, variant_id) — variation by name (e.g. “rs56116432”)
  • vep(species, region, allele) — Variant Effect Predictor (region: “9:22125504-22125504:1”)
  • xref_symbol(species, symbol) — symbol lookup (alias for /xrefs/symbol)
