Bioservices
If you're working with biological data across multiple databases, this is your Swiss Army knife. It wraps 40+ bioinformatics APIs (UniProt, KEGG, ChEMBL, PubChem, Reactome) into a unified Python interface so you can query proteins, map identifiers between databases, analyze pathways, and run BLAST searches without dealing with different REST endpoints and authentication schemes. The real value is in multi-database workflows: search a protein in UniProt, find its pathways in KEGG, map compound IDs through UniChem, all in the same script. If you only need one database and want full REST control, the individual database skills are cleaner, but for integrative bioinformatics pipelines, this handles the plumbing.

BioServices
Overview
BioServices is a Python package providing programmatic access to approximately 40 bioinformatics web services and databases. Retrieve biological data, perform cross-database queries, map identifiers, analyze sequences, and integrate multiple biological resources in Python workflows. The package handles both REST and SOAP/WSDL protocols transparently.
When to Use This Skill
This skill should be used when:
- Retrieving protein sequences, annotations, or structures from UniProt, PDB, Pfam
- Analyzing metabolic pathways and gene functions via KEGG or Reactome
- Searching compound databases (ChEBI, ChEMBL, PubChem) for chemical information
- Converting identifiers between different biological databases (KEGG↔UniProt, compound IDs)
- Running sequence similarity searches (BLAST, MUSCLE alignment)
- Querying gene ontology terms (QuickGO, GO annotations)
- Accessing protein-protein interaction data (PSICQUIC, IntactComplex)
- Mining genomic data (BioMart, ArrayExpress, ENA)
- Integrating data from multiple bioinformatics resources in a single workflow
