Do I need to install anything to use this skill?

The skill assumes Biopython is installed in your environment. You can install it using 'pip install biopython' to enable these capabilities.

What is the Biopython Claude Code Skill?

It is a specialized capability that enables Claude to use the Biopython library for biological computation, sequence analysis, and programmatic bioinformatics database access.

Does it support structural biology formats like PDB?

Absolutely. It provides comprehensive tools for parsing, navigating, and analyzing 3D protein structures using the Bio.PDB module.

Can I use this skill to search PubMed or GenBank?

Yes, the skill includes optimized workflows for using Bio.Entrez to programmatically search, fetch, and parse data from NCBI databases using your email or API key.

データサイエンスとML

Provides comprehensive Python tools for biological computation, sequence analysis, and bioinformatics database access.

概要

The Biopython skill integrates the premier Python library for molecular biology into the Claude environment, enabling autonomous discovery and analysis. It allows Claude to handle complex bioinformatics tasks such as DNA/RNA/Protein sequence manipulation, structural analysis of PDB files, and programmatic interaction with NCBI databases via Entrez. Designed for researchers and bioinformaticians, this skill facilitates sophisticated workflows including BLAST search management, phylogenetic tree construction, and multi-format biological file parsing (FASTA, GenBank, FASTQ), making it an essential tool for AI-driven scientific inquiry.
