KEGG Bioinformatics Analysis

This skill orchestrates multi-step biological analyses using the KEGG MCP server tools. It transforms raw gene lists, drug names, or pathway IDs into structured biological insights.

When to Use This Skill

• Performing pathway enrichment analysis on a gene list
• Investigating a drug's mechanism of action, targets, and interactions
• Comparing metabolic pathways across species
• Tracing compound-reaction networks
• Mapping genes to functional modules and ortholog groups

What This Skill Does

1. Identifies the analysis type from the user's input (enrichment, drug, comparison, network)
2. Resolves identifiers — maps gene symbols, drug names, or pathway IDs to KEGG entries
3. Retrieves cross-linked data — follows relationships across KEGG databases
4. Aggregates and ranks results — counts pathway hits, scores conservation, groups by function
5. Synthesizes biological context — explains significance, not just IDs
