## Features

- Get protein information by UniProt accession number
- Batch retrieval of multiple proteins
- Caching for improved performance (24-hour TTL)
- Error handling and logging
- Information includes:
  - Protein name
  - Function description
  - Full sequence
  - Sequence length
  - Organism

## Quick Start

1. Ensure you have Python 3.10 or higher installed
2. Clone this repository:
   ```bash
   git clone https://github.com/TakumiY235/uniprot-mcp-server.git
   cd uniprot-mcp-server
   ```
3. Install dependencies:
   ```bash
   # Using uv (recommended)
   uv pip install -r requirements.txt
   
   # Or using pip
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   ```

## Configuration

Add to your Claude Desktop config file:

- Windows: `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json`
- macOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
- Linux: `~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "uniprot": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": ["--directory", "path/to/uniprot-mcp-server", "run", "uniprot-mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}
```

## Usage Examples

After configuring the server in Claude Desktop, you can ask questions like:

```
Can you get the protein information for UniProt accession number P98160?
```

For batch queries:

```
Can you get and compare the protein information for both P04637 and P02747?
```

## API Reference

### Tools
