Query EBI QuickGO REST API for GO terms and protein annotations. Fetch term metadata by ID, search by keyword, walk ancestor/descendant hierarchies, download annotations filtered by taxon, evidence code, aspect. Use for GO resolution, ontology traversal, annotation retrieval before enrichment. Use gseapy-gene-enrichment for enrichment; uniprot-protein-database for proteins.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# QuickGO Database ## Overview QuickGO is the EBI's Gene Ontology annotation browser and REST API. It provides programmatic access to the GO ontology (terms, synonyms, hierarchies) and to the manually curated and electronic GO annotations for proteins across all species. The API is free, requires no authentication, and returns JSON responses. All endpoints live under `https://www.ebi.ac.uk/QuickGO/services/`. ## When to Use - Resolving a GO term ID (e.g., `GO:0006915`) to its name, definition, and aspect (biological_process, molecular_function, cellular_component) - Retrieving all GO annotations for a UniProt protein, filtered by evidence code and taxon - Searching GO terms by keyword (e.g., "apoptosis") to find relevant term IDs before enrichment analysis - Walking the GO DAG upward (ancestors) or downward (descendants) from a specific term - Getting annotation counts stratified by evidence code or GO aspect for a set of proteins - Resolving multiple GO IDs in one batch request to avoid looping over individual term lookups - For enrichment analysis (ORA/GSEA) on a gene list use `gseapy-gene-enrichment`; QuickGO provides the raw annotation data …

How to install
mdr add jaechang-hits/sciagent-skills/quickgo-database@sha256:4bc2c5a5e28b5ec9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260528.3e3f998, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
