`get_gene`

Pack: pombase · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/get_gene for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

PomBase (fission yeast / S. pombe model-organism DB): look up a gene by its PomBase systematic id and return its product, protein domains (InterPro), deletion viability, UniProt id, and curation status. Keyless. NOTE: requires a systematic id like “SPAC1002.01” or “SPBC2F12.13” — standard gene names like “cdc2” are NOT resolved by this API. Complements SGD (budding yeast).

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`id`	string	yes	A PomBase systematic id, e.g. “SPAC1002.01” or “SPBC2F12.13”. Standard names (“cdc2”) are not accepted.
