Open Targets
Drug target discovery and prioritisation platform
This MCP provides a purpose-built interface and instructions to access and interpret the data and analyses in the Open Targets Platform. The Open Targets Platform is a comprehensive tool that supports systematic identification and prioritisation of potential therapeutic drug targets, integrating publicly available datasets to build and score target-disease associations. It also integrates relevant annotation information about targets, diseases/phenotypes, drugs, variants, GWAS and molecular QTL studies, and credible sets, as well as their most relevant relationships.
