Connects Claude to the InterPro database at the European Bioinformatics Institute for querying protein families, domains, and functional sites. Part of the Pipeworx gateway ecosystem, which routes to 808+ data sources and includes an ask_pipeworx natural language interface that automatically selects tools and fills parameters instead of calling them directly. Useful when you need to classify proteins, look up conserved domains, or understand functional annotations without manually constructing InterPro API calls. Ships as a standalone server or as part of the full Pipeworx gateway. Supports streamable HTTP transport for remote access.
InterPro MCP (EBI) — protein family / domain / functional-site classification.
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 808+ live data sources.
| Tool | Description |
|---|
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"interpro": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/interpro/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 808+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Interpro data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
