概要
The Ensembl Database skill empowers Claude to interact directly with the Ensembl REST API, providing a powerful toolkit for genomic research and bioinformatics. It facilitates seamless gene annotation lookups, DNA and protein sequence retrieval, and advanced comparative genomics. By leveraging the latest Ensembl releases, researchers can perform variant effect predictions (VEP), identify orthologs across species, and map coordinates between genome assemblies like GRCh37 and GRCh38. This skill is essential for automating biological data pipelines, analyzing genetic variations, and integrating high-quality vertebrate genomic data into research workflows.
