Instructions

An MCP server for accessing the EMBL-EBI ChEMBL Database v34.

This server provides:

Tools: Search compounds, bioactivity data, targets, mechanisms, drugs, ADMET properties

Purpose: Support drug discovery research, target identification, compound screening, pharmaceutical development

ChEMBL is a manually curated database of bioactive molecules with drug-like properties. It contains compound structures, bioactivity data against biological targets, and drug mechanism information. The database integrates data from medicinal chemistry literature, patents, and screening experiments.

Tool selection guide

compound_search: Find compounds by name, SMILES, or ChEMBL ID - starting point for compound analysis

target_search: Find biological targets (proteins, genes, receptors) - essential for understanding drug mechanisms
