Visualize, analyze, and render protein and molecular structures using PyMOL. Use when the user wants to create images of protein structures, perform structural alignments or superposition, measure distances or contacts, highlight binding sites or active site residues, color by B-factor/pLDDT, or analyze protein-ligand interactions. Do not use for docking, molecular dynamics, or sequence-only analysis.
Query the Ensembl database to resolve gene, transcript, and protein IDs, fetch genomic or protein sequences, retrieve gene structures (exons), and get variant consequence and effect predictions (VEP). Use this skill as a primary ID translator, genomic sequence database and variant effect prediction tool.
Production-ready VCF processing, variant annotation, mutation analysis, and structural variant (SV/CNV) interpretation for bioinformatics questions. Parses VCF files (streaming, large files), classifies mutation types (missense, nonsense, synonymous, frameshift, splice, intronic, intergenic) and structural variants (deletions, duplications, inversions, translocations), applies VAF/depth/quality/consequence filters, annotates with ClinVar/dbSNP/gnomAD/CADD via ToolUniverse, interprets SV/CNV clinical significance using ClinGen dosage sensitivity scores, computes variant statistics, and generates reports. Solves questions like "What fraction of variants with VAF < 0.3 are missense?", "How many non-reference variants remain after filtering intronic/intergenic?", "What is the pathogenicity of this deletion affecting BRCA1?", or "Which dosage-sensitive genes overlap this CNV?". Use when processing VCF files, annotating variants, filtering by VAF/depth/consequence, classifying mutations, interpreting structural variants, assessing CNV pathogenicity, comparing cohorts, or answering variant analysis questions.
Cross-species gene and sequence comparison, ortholog analysis, and evolutionary conservation assessment using ToolUniverse tools. Use when comparing genes across species, finding orthologs, analyzing evolutionary conservation, or performing comparative functional annotation.
Integrate structural biology data with proteomics for drug target validation. Retrieves protein structures from PDB (RCSB, PDBe), AlphaFold predictions, antibody structures (SAbDab), GPCR data (GPCRdb), binding pocket analysis (ProteinsPlus), and ligand interactions (BindingDB). Use when asked to find structures for a drug target, identify binding site ligands, cross-validate drug binding with structural data, assess structural druggability, or compare experimental vs predicted structures.
Identify domains, families, and sites in proteins; find all proteins in a family or sharing a domain; explore species distribution for a domain; annotate genomes with protein families and GO terms. InterPro combines 14 databases (e.g., Pfam, CDD) into one searchable resource. InterPro-N significantly expands annotation and sequence coverage with deep learning. Includes domain architecture (IDA) search.
Use when you want to retrieve quantitative RNA expression data and variant eQTL information from the GTEx (Genotype-Tissue Expression) Project across 54 non-diseased tissue sites.
Comprehensive computational validation of drug targets for early-stage drug discovery. Evaluates targets across 10 dimensions (disambiguation, disease association, druggability, chemical matter, clinical precedent, safety, pathway context, validation evidence, structural insights, validation roadmap) using 60+ ToolUniverse tools. Produces a quantitative Target Validation Score (0-100) with GO/NO-GO recommendation. Use when users ask about target validation, druggability assessment, target prioritization, or "is X a good drug target for Y?"
Use when you want to look up, map, and search for short genetic variants (SNPs, indels) in NCBI's dbSNP database. Resolves between rsIDs, genomic coordinates in VCF format, and HGVS strings. For an rsID, returns variant type, gene associations, clinical significance, allele frequencies, and genomic coordinates (GRCh38).
