Look up a gene by its official symbol (e.g. "TP53", "BRCA1", "CFTR") and organism (taxid, default 9606 = human), merging NCBI Gene with UniProt. Returns the gene symbol, NCBI Gene ID, full description, organism, chromosome + cytogenetic map location, alias symbols, and the curated RefSeq function summary; plus the reviewed protein from UniProt — accession, entry id, recommended protein name, length in amino acids, and the curated function description. NCBI + UniProt links. Bioinformatics, clinical-genetics research, education. Public-domain NCBI + CC-BY UniProt data. Common organism taxids: human 9606, mouse 10090, zebrafish 7955, fruit fly 7227, yeast 559292.
