ChEMBL

searchTargets

Free

Find ChEMBL targets by gene symbol (EGFR), UniProt accession (P00533) or protein name. Exact gene symbol, synonym and accession matches come first, single proteins before complexes and families. Returns target ChEMBL IDs for getBioactivities and getMechanisms, plus gene symbols and UniProt IDs to bridge to Open Targets (pass the gene symbol to opentargets-mcp searchEntities for the Ensembl ID). Also accepts the uniprotId or symbol from opentargets-mcp getTargetProfile.
