Summary
This server wraps the MyGene.info API, giving you programmatic access to gene annotations pulled from NCBI, Ensembl, UniProt, KEGG, and OMIM. You get five tools: full-text gene search, single gene lookups, batch queries, metadata about data sources and releases, and species taxonomy retrieval. It's hosted through Pipeworx's gateway, so no local setup needed. Reach for this when you're building genomics workflows and need to resolve gene IDs, query gene functions, or pull cross-referenced annotations without manually hitting multiple bioinformatics databases. The ask_pipeworx wrapper lets you query in natural language if you prefer that to direct tool calls.

MyGene.info MCP.
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 673+ live data sources.
Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
query | Full-text gene query. |
gene | Annotations for a single gene id. |
query_many | Batch lookup (POST). |
metadata | Release / source metadata. |
taxonomy | Species taxonomy info. |
Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"mygene-info": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mygene-info/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Mygene Info data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
