Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@plant-public-mcpGet protein summary for tomato gene Solyc01g007010"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
plant-public-mcp
Plant bioinformatics public interface MCP: UniProt / NCBI / InterProScan / PDB / AlphaFold, plus Ensembl Plants, Sol Genomics (Solanaceae public portal), and Arabidopsis BAR / ATTED / STRING.
This package does not include any local genomes, local RNA-seq, or species-specific database data. All data goes through public APIs; tools without an open API only return submission steps and parameter suggestions, and do not fabricate results.
Covered Resources
Module | Data source | Access |
| UniProt | REST |
