概述

BioMCP 是一款模型上下文协议（MCP）服务器，旨在增强具备蛋白质结构分析能力的大型语言模型。它通过与成熟的蛋白质数据库接口，提供分析蛋白质活性位点和疾病相关蛋白搜索的工具。

未来工作将聚焦于使代理能够利用BioMCP。

特色

• 活性位点分析：利用PDB ID检查蛋白质的结合位点和功能残基
• 疾病-蛋白质搜索：查找与特定疾病或疾病相关的蛋白质结构
• 集成数据访问：无缝连接RCSB蛋白质数据库（PDB）

技术细节

BioMCP 实现了模型上下文协议，使语言模型能够访问专业的蛋白质结构知识，而无需将这些信息作为训练数据的一部分。服务器负责 API 连接、数据格式化和错误处理，以提供可靠的蛋白质结构洞察。

API 端点

BioMCP揭示了两个主要工具：

1. analyze-active-site：利用PDB ID提供蛋白质结合位点的详细信息

BioMCP: Enabling agent-based biomedical R&D

Overview

BioMCP is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to enhance large language models with protein structure analysis capabilities. It provides tools for analyzing protein active sites and searching for disease-related proteins by interfacing with established protein databases.

Future work will be centered around enabling agents to utilize the BioMCP.

Features

• Active Site Analysis: Examine the binding sites and functional residues of proteins using PDB IDs
• Disease-Protein Search: Find protein structures associated with specific diseases or medical conditions
• Integrated Data Access: Connect seamlessly with RCSB Protein Data Bank (PDB)

Technical Details

BioMCP implements the Model Context Protocol, allowing language models to access specialized protein structure knowledge without requiring this information to be part of their training data. The server handles API connections, data formatting, and error handling to provide reliable protein structure insights.

API Endpoints

BioMCP exposes two primary tools:

1. analyze-active-site: Provides detailed information about protein binding sites using a PDB ID
2. search-disease-proteins: Returns proteins related to specified diseases or medical conditions

Getting Started

Installing via Smithery

To install BioMCP for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @acashmoney/bio-mcp --client claude

Manual Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/acashmoney/bio-mcp.git

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Start the server
npm start

Setup Instructions

Running the MCP Inspector

1. Start the BioMCP server:

   npm start
   

2. In a separate terminal, install the MCP Inspector globally (if not already installed):

   npm install -g @anthropic-ai/mcp-inspector
   

3. Launch the MCP Inspector and connect to your local BioMCP server:

   npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector node build/index.js
   

4. Use the inspector interface to test tools and view responses.

Using with Claude Desktop

1. Build the BioMCP server:

   npm run build
   

2. Configure Claude Desktop to launch the MCP server:

   a. Locate your Claude Desktop config.json file (typically in your user directory)

   b. Edit the config.json to include the BioMCP server build path. Example configuration:

   {
     "globalShortcut": "",
     "mcpServers": {
       "bio-mcp": {
         "command": "node",
         "args": [
           "/path/to/your/build/index.js"
         ]
       }
     }
   }
