# Binding Site Characterization

**Discipline**: Structural Biology | **Tools Used**: 4 | **Servers**: 3

## Description

Characterize binding sites: predict pockets with fpocket and P2Rank, get binding site info from ChEMBL, and visualize.

## Tools Used

- **`run_fpocket`** from `server-3` (streamable-http) - `https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/3/DrugSDA-Model`
- **`pred_pocket_prank`** from `server-3` (streamable-http) - `https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/3/DrugSDA-Model`
- **`get_binding_site_by_id`** from `chembl-server` (streamable-http) - `https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/4/Origene-ChEMBL`
- **`visualize_protein`** from `server-2` (streamable-http) - `https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/2/DrugSDA-Tool`

## Workflow

1. Predict pockets with fpocket
2. Predict pockets with P2Rank
3. Get ChEMBL binding site data
4. Visualize protein structure

## Test Case

### Input
```json
{
    "pdb_code": "1AKE"
}
```

### Expected Steps
1. Predict pockets with fpocket
2. Predict pockets with P2Rank
3. Get ChEMBL binding site data
4. Visualize protein structure

## Usage Example

> **Note:** Replace `<YOUR_SCP_HUB_API_KEY>` with your own SCP Hub API Key. You can obtain one from the [SCP Platform](https://scphub.intern-ai.org.cn).

```python
import asyncio
import json
from mcp import ClientSession
from mcp.client.streamable_http import streamablehttp_client
from mcp.client.sse import sse_client

    "server-3": "https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/3/DrugSDA-Model",
    "chembl-server": "https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/4/Origene-ChEMBL",
    "server-2": "https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/2/DrugSDA-Tool"
}

async def connect(url, transport_type):
    transport = streamablehttp_client(url=url, headers={"SCP-HUB-API-KEY": "<YOUR_SCP_HUB_API_KEY>"})
    read, write, _ = await transport.__aenter__()
    ctx = ClientSession(read, write)
    session = await ctx.__aenter__()
    await session.initialize()
    return session, ctx, transport

def parse(result):
    try:

            c = result.content[0]
            if hasattr(c, 'text'):
                try: return json.loads(c.text)
                except: return c.text
        return str(result)
    except: return str(result)

async def main():
    # Connect to required servers
    sessions = {}
    sessions["server-3"], _, _ = await connect("https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/3/DrugSDA-Model", "streamable-http")
    sessions["chembl-server"], _, _ = await connect("https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/4/Origene-ChEMBL", "streamable-http")
    sessions["server-2"], _, _ = await connect("https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/2/DrugSDA-Tool", "streamable-http")

    # Execute workflow steps
    # Step 1: Predict pockets with fpocket
    result_1 = await sessions["server-3"].call_tool("run_fpocket", arguments={})
    data_1 = parse(result_1)

    # Step 2: Predict pockets with P2Rank
    result_2 = await sessions["server-3"].call_tool("pred_pocket_prank", arguments={})
    data_2 = parse(result_2)
    print(f"Step 2 result: {json.dumps(data_2, indent=2, ensure_ascii=False)[:500]}")

    # Step 3: Get ChEMBL binding site data
    result_3 = await sessions["chembl-server"].call_tool("get_binding_site_by_id", arguments={})
    data_3 = parse(result_3)
    print(f"Step 3 result: {json.dumps(data_3, indent=2, ensure_ascii=False)[:500]}")

    # Step 4: Visualize protein structure
    result_4 = await sessions["server-2"].call_tool("visualize_protein", arguments={})
    data_4 = parse(result_4)
    print(f"Step 4 result: {json.dumps(data_4, indent=2, ensure_ascii=False)[:500]}")

    print("Workflow complete!")
