Multi-Omics Integration

Coordinate and integrate multiple omics datasets for comprehensive systems biology analysis. Orchestrates specialized ToolUniverse skills to perform cross-omics correlation, multi-omics clustering, pathway-level integration, and unified interpretation.

Domain Reasoning

Multi-omics integration asks whether different molecular layers tell a concordant story. If a gene is upregulated in RNA-seq AND its protein is elevated in proteomics, that is concordant evidence of true biological change. Discordance — high mRNA but low protein, or elevated protein without matching mRNA — may indicate post-transcriptional regulation (miRNA silencing, protein degradation, translational control) and is itself a meaningful finding worth reporting. Not every discordance is noise; some are the most interesting biology.

LOOK UP DON'T GUESS

• Expected RNA-protein correlation ranges: compute Spearman r from the actual data; the typical range (0.4-0.6) is a guide, not a guarantee.
• Pathway enrichment results: run ReactomeAnalysis_pathway_enrichment or gseapy on the actual gene lists; never list enriched pathways from memory.
• eQTL associations: query GTEx or eQTL databases for the specific variant and tissue; do not assume regulatory relationships.
• Methylation-expression directionality at specific loci: retrieve experimental data; promoter repression is the canonical model but exceptions exist.
