Brenda Database
v1.0.0Access BRENDA enzyme database via SOAP API. Retrieve kinetic parameters (Km, kcat), reaction equations, organism data, and substrate-specific enzyme information for biochemical research and metabolic pathway analysis.
Bioservices
v1.0.0Unified Python interface to 40+ bioinformatics services. Use when querying multiple databases (UniProt, KEGG, ChEMBL, Reactome) in a single workflow with consistent API. Best for cross-database analysis, ID mapping across services. For quick single-database lookups use gget; for sequence/file manipulation use biopython.
Biorxiv Database
v1.0.0Efficient database search tool for bioRxiv preprint server. Use this skill when searching for life sciences preprints by keywords, authors, date ranges, or categories, retrieving paper metadata, downloading PDFs, or conducting literature reviews.
Biopython
v1.0.0Comprehensive molecular biology toolkit. Use for sequence manipulation, file parsing (FASTA/GenBank/PDB), phylogenetics, and programmatic NCBI/PubMed access (Bio.Entrez). Best for batch processing, custom bioinformatics pipelines, BLAST automation. For quick lookups use gget;...
Bindingdb Database
v1.0.0Query BindingDB for measured drug-target binding affinities (Ki, Kd, IC50, EC50). Search by target (UniProt ID), compound (SMILES/name), or pathogen. Essential for drug discovery, lead optimization, polypharmacology analysis, and structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies.
Bgpt Paper Search
v1.0.0Search scientific papers and retrieve structured experimental data extracted from full-text studies via the BGPT MCP server. Returns 25+ fields per paper including methods, results, sample sizes, quality scores, and conclusions. Use for literature reviews, evidence synthesis, and finding experimental details not available in abstracts alone.
Benchling Integration
v1.0.0Benchling R&D platform integration. Access registry (DNA, proteins), inventory, ELN entries, workflows via API, build Benchling Apps, query Data Warehouse, for lab data management automation.
Astropy
v1.0.0Comprehensive Python library for astronomy and astrophysics. This skill should be used when working with astronomical data including celestial coordinates, physical units, FITS files, cosmological calculations, time systems, tables, world coordinate systems (WCS), and...
Arxiv Database
v1.0.0Search and retrieve preprints from arXiv via the Atom API. Use this skill when searching for papers in physics, mathematics, computer science, quantitative biology, quantitative finance, statistics, electrical engineering, or economics by keywords, authors, arXiv IDs, date ranges, or categories.
Arboreto
v1.0.0Infer gene regulatory networks (GRNs) from gene expression data using scalable algorithms (GRNBoost2, GENIE3). Use when analyzing transcriptomics data (bulk RNA-seq, single-cell RNA-seq) to identify transcription factor-target gene relationships and regulatory interactions. Supports distributed computation for large-scale datasets.
Anndata
v1.0.0Data structure for annotated matrices in single-cell analysis. Use when working with .h5ad files or integrating with the scverse ecosystem. This is the data format skill—for analysis workflows use scanpy; for probabilistic models use scvi-tools; for population-scale queries use cellxgene-census.
Alphafold Database
v1.0.0Access AlphaFold 200M+ AI-predicted protein structures. Retrieve structures by UniProt ID, download PDB/mmCIF files, analyze confidence metrics (pLDDT, PAE), for drug discovery and structural biology.
