alterlab-hmdb
From the author
Access the Human Metabolome Database (HMDB, 220K+ metabolites), searching by name, HMDB ID, or structure to retrieve chemical properties, biomarker data, NMR/MS reference spectra, and associated pathways. Use when identifying a human metabolite, looking up its biomarker or disease associations, matching NMR/MS spectra, or running metabolomics annotation. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.

- hmdb-databasejaechang-hits/SciAgent-SkillsParse HMDB (Human Metabolome Database) local XML for metabolite info, chemical properties, biological context, disease links, spectra, and cross-DB mapping. No REST API — uses ~6 GB XML download. Use drugbank-database-access for drugs; pubchem-compound-search for live lookups.Data★ 383
- alterlab-metabolomics-wbAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsAccess the NIH Metabolomics Workbench via its REST API (4,500+ public studies), querying metabolites, RefMet standardized nomenclature, MS/NMR data, m/z mass searches, and study metadata. Use when retrieving public metabolomics study data, standardizing metabolite names with RefMet, running m/z lookups, or doing biomarker discovery.

- metabolomics-workbench-databaseforyourhealth111-pixel/Vibe-SkillsAccess NIH Metabolomics Workbench via REST API (4,200+ studies). Query metabolites, RefMet nomenclature, MS/NMR data, m/z searches, study metadata, for metabolomics and biomarker discovery.Data★ 3.8K
- alterlab-drugbankAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsAccess and analyze drug information from the DrugBank database — drug properties, interactions, targets, pathways, chemical structures, and pharmacology data. Use when working with pharmaceutical data, drug discovery research, drug-drug interaction analysis, target identification, chemical similarity searches, ADMET predictions, or any task needing detailed drug and drug-target records from DrugBank. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.Data★ 78
- alterlab-alphafold-dbAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsAccess the AlphaFold DB of 240M+ AI-PREDICTED protein structures (v6, plus precomputed homodimer/heterodimer complexes) — retrieve models by UniProt accession, download PDB/mmCIF files, and analyze prediction confidence metrics (pLDDT, PAE). Use when a UniProt ID needs a computationally predicted 3D structure or when no experimental structure exists, for homology modeling, protein engineering, or structure-based drug discovery; for EXPERIMENTALLY determined structures (X-ray, cryo-EM, NMR) prefer alterlab-pdb, to fold a NEW sequence or complex yourself prefer alterlab-alphafold, and for protein sequences, annotations, or accession ID mapping prefer alterlab-uniprot instead.

- alterlab-matchmsAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsComputes mass-spectral similarity and identifies compounds for metabolomics with matchms — comparing mass spectra, scoring similarity (cosine, modified cosine), and searching spectral libraries to annotate unknowns. Use when matching MS/MS spectra, identifying metabolites, or library searching; for full LC-MS/MS proteomics pipelines use alterlab-pyopenms. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.Planning★ 78
