| description | Look up gene information from HGNC, OMIM, ClinVar, and UniProt. Use for target validation, variant interpretation, and disease-gene associations. |
Gene Lookup
Query standard gene databases for nomenclature, function, variants, and disease associations.
Commands
| Command | Description |
|---|
web_search "site:genenames.org <gene-symbol>" | HGNC approved name and aliases |
web_search "site:omim.org <gene-symbol>" | OMIM gene-disease associations |
web_search "site:ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar <gene-symbol>" | ClinVar variants |
web_search "site:uniprot.org <gene-symbol>" | UniProt protein information |
web_search "site:gtexportal.org <gene-symbol>" | GTEx expression data |
Output
For each gene, compile:
- HGNC symbol, full name, aliases
- Chromosomal location
- OMIM phenotype associations
- ClinVar pathogenic variants (count, top variants)
- UniProt ID, protein family, domains
- Expression profile (tissue-specific)
- Known drugs targeting this gene product
