Bio Comparative Genomics Synteny Analysis

biotender-max/bio-comparative-genomics-synteny-analysis

Detect syntenic blocks and structural rearrangements between genomes using MCScanX (Wang 2012), JCVI/MCScan (Tang 2008 Python), GENESPACE (Lovell 2022) for orthology-anchored riparian visualization, SyRI for structural variation, AnchorWave for sequence-level synteny, i-ADHoRe 3.0 for highly diverged species, SynNet for synteny networks, and ntSynt for multi-genome macrosynteny. Use when identifying collinear gene blocks across species, distinguishing macrosynteny from microsynteny, detecting inversions/translocations/duplications, anchoring orthology in WGD lineages, producing publication riparian plots, computing synteny block age via Ks (cross-references whole-genome-duplication), or running synteny-aware ortholog inference in polyploids.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take biotender-max/bio-comparative-genomics-synteny-analysis from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference pip. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
