# Gene-to-Drug Discovery Pipeline

**Discipline**: Translational Medicine | **Tools Used**: 5 | **Servers**: 3

## Description

Full gene-to-drug pipeline: gene lookup, protein structure, binding pocket, virtual screening, and drug-likeness.

## Tools Used

- **`get_gene_metadata_by_gene_name`** from `ncbi-server` (streamable-http) - `https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/9/Origene-NCBI`
- **`pred_protein_structure_esmfold`** from `server-3` (streamable-http) - `https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/3/DrugSDA-Model`
- **`run_fpocket`** from `server-3` (streamable-http) - `https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/3/DrugSDA-Model`
- **`boltz_binding_affinity`** from `server-3` (streamable-http) - `https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/3/DrugSDA-Model`
- **`calculate_mol_drug_chemistry`** from `server-2` (streamable-http) - `https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/2/DrugSDA-Tool`

## Workflow

1. Get gene info from NCBI
2. Predict protein structure
3. Identify binding pockets
4. Predict ligand binding
5. Assess drug-likeness

## Test Case

### Input
```json
{
    "gene": "BRAF",
    "sequence": "MAALSGPGPGA"
}
```

### Expected Steps
1. Get gene info from NCBI
2. Predict protein structure
3. Identify binding pockets
4. Predict ligand binding
5. Assess drug-likeness

## Usage Example

> **Note:** Replace `sk-b04409a1-b32b-4511-9aeb-22980abdc05c` with your own SCP Hub API Key. You can obtain one from the [SCP Platform](https://scphub.intern-ai.org.cn).
