🎯 **Dataset Summary**

A drug target reference database covering 2,000 biological targets with cross-database identifier mapping and drug association counts. Designed for target-centric drug discovery and multi-omics integration.

**🚀 Key Features**

- **Cross-Database IDs:** Each target links UniProt, NCBI Gene ID, Ensembl Gene ID, and RefSeq accessions (nucleotide and protein).
- **Multilingual Names & Aliases:** `target_name` and `alias` support both English gene symbols and Chinese nomenclature.
- **Drug Count:** `drug_count` provides a quick measure of target druggability based on associated compounds.

**💻 Quick Start & MCP Integration**

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("your-org/drug-targets", split="train")
record = dataset[0]
en_name = next(n["name"] for n in record["target_name"] if n["lang"] == "EN")
print(en_name)
# Output: 'solute carrier family 37 member 4'
print(record["uniprot_id"])
# Output: ['O43826']
print(record["drug_count"])
# Output: 1
```
