biopython

Primary retained Python toolkit for molecular biology sequence work. Preferred for sequence manipulation, FASTA/FASTQ/GenBank parsing, Bio.Entrez, BLAST workflows, alignments, structures, and phylogenetics. For biological database evidence lookup, use bio-database-evidence. For single-cell workflows use scanpy. For direct literature REST API, use pubmed-database.

# Biopython: Computational Molecular Biology in Python ## Overview Biopython is a comprehensive set of freely available Python tools for biological computation. It provides functionality for sequence manipulation, file I/O, database access, structural bioinformatics, phylogenetics, and many other bioinformatics tasks. The current version is **Biopython 1.85** (released January 2025), which support

About this skill
What does the biopython skill do?

Primary retained Python toolkit for molecular biology sequence work. Preferred for sequence manipulation, FASTA/FASTQ/GenBank parsing, Bio.Entrez, BLAST workflows, alignments, structures, and phylogenetics. For biological database evidence lookup, use bio-database-evidence. For single-cell workflows use scanpy. For direct literature REST API, use pubmed-database.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add foryourhealth111-pixel/Vibe-Skills --skill biopython --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From foryourhealth111-pixel/Vibe-Skills, a repository with 2,593 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
