About
tooluniverse-multiomic-disease-characterization is a mims-harvard/ToolUniverse skill for full-omics disease deep dives. After disease disambiguation to MONDO/EFO identifiers, it runs nine phases covering GWAS genetics, GTEx expression across 54 tissues, STRING PPI networks, Reactome and Enrichr pathway enrichment, GO annotation, therapeutic landscape via DGIdb and clinical trials, cross-layer integration, and a 0–100 Multi-Omics Confidence Score with T1–T4 evidence grading. The report-first workflow creates a markdown report before populating sections progressively. Reference files include tool-reference.md, report-template.md, integration-scoring.md, response-formats.md, and use-patterns.md. Use when agents must connect variants to expression, protein interactions, pathways, druggable targets, and biomarker hypotheses in one structured translational report.

How do you characterize disease mechanisms across omics layers?
Help agents integrate genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics signals to characterize disease mechanisms, biomarkers, and subtype hypotheses in translational projects.
Who is it for?
Translational bioinformatics engineers building agents that synthesize genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and pathway evidence into unified disease characterization reports.
Skip if: Single-gene drug-target validation only, adverse-event safety profiling, or quick disease summaries without cross-omics integration and scored evidence grading.
When should I use this skill?
User needs multi-omics disease characterization, cross-layer mechanism mapping, biomarker discovery, or druggable target identification from integrated molecular data
What you get
Multi-omics markdown reports, cross-layer gene concordance tables, biomarker candidates, druggable targets, and confidence scores
- multi-omics disease reports
- biomarker candidate lists
- druggable target rankings
By the numbers
- Runs a 9-phase multi-omics characterization pipeline
- GTEx expression summary covers 54 tissues
- Multi-Omics Confidence Score ranges 0–100 with T1–T4 evidence grades

Multi-Omics Disease Characterization Pipeline
Characterize diseases across multiple molecular layers (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, pathways) to provide systems-level understanding of disease mechanisms, identify therapeutic opportunities, and discover biomarker candidates.
KEY PRINCIPLES: 1. Report-first approach - Create report file FIRST, then populate progressively 2. Disease disambiguation FIRST - Resolve all identifiers before omics analysis 3. Layer-by-layer analysis - Systematically cover all omics layers 4. Cross-layer integration - Identify genes/targets appearing in multiple layers 5. Evidence grading - Grade all evidence as T1 (human/clinical) to T4 (computational) 6. Tissue context - Emphasize disease-relevant tissues/organs 7. Quantitative scoring - Multi-Omics Confidence Score (0-100) 8. Druggable focus - Prioritize targets with therapeutic potential 9. Biomarker identification - Highlight diagnostic/prognostic markers 10. Mechanistic synthesis - Generate testable hypotheses 11. Source references - Every statement must cite tool/database 12. Completeness checklist - Mandatory section showing analysis coverage 13. English-first queries - Always use English terms in tool calls. Respond in user's language
Multi-omics disease characterization asks: what molecular layers are dysregulated? Genomic mutations → transcriptomic changes → proteomic effects → metabolomic consequences. Concordance across layers strengthens the finding. Discordance reveals regulatory complexity.
LOOK UP, DON'T GUESS
When uncertain about any scientific fact, SEARCH databases first rather than reasoning from memory. A database-verified answer is always more reliable than a guess.
---
COMPUTE, DON'T DESCRIBE
When analysis requires computation (statistics, data processing, scoring, enrichment), write and run Python code via Bash. Don't describe what you would do — execute it and report actual results. Use ToolUniverse tools to retrieve data, then Python (pandas, scipy, statsmodels, matplotlib) to analyze it.
When to Use This Skill
Apply when users:
- Ask about disease mechanisms across omics layers
- Need multi-omics characterization of a disease
- Want to understand disease at the systems biology level
- Ask "What pathways/genes/proteins are involved in [disease]?"
- Need biomarker discovery for a disease
- Want to identify druggable targets from disease profiling
- Ask for integrated genomics + transcriptomics + proteomics analysis
- Need cross-layer concordance analysis
- Ask about disease network biology / hub genes

- Single gene/target validation -> Use
tooluniverse-drug-target-validation - Drug safety profiling -> Use
tooluniverse-adverse-event-detection - General disease overview -> Use

Pipeline Overview
The pipeline runs 9 phases sequentially. Each phase uses specific tools documented in detail in tool-reference.md.
Phase 0: Disease Disambiguation (ALWAYS FIRST)
Resolve disease to standard identifiers (MONDO/EFO) for all downstream queries.
- Primary tool:
OpenTargets_get_disease_id_description_by_name - Get description, synonyms, therapeutic areas, disease hierarchy, cross-references
- CRITICAL: Disease IDs use underscore format (e.g.,
MONDO_0004975), NOT colon - If ambiguous, present top 3-5 options and ask user to select
Phase 1: Genomics Layer
Identify genetic variants, GWAS associations, and genetically implicated genes.
- Tools:
gwas_search_associations(useefo_idfor precision, not free-textdisease_trait),gwas_get_snps_for_gene, ClinVar, OpenTargets associated targets gnomad_get_gene_constraints— gene constraint metrics (pLI, oe_lof) to interpret whether LoF variants are tolerated vs. haploinsufficient- Get top 10-15 genes with genetic evidence scores; track Ensembl IDs for downstream phases
Phase 2: Transcriptomics Layer
Identify differentially expressed genes, tissue-specific expression, and expression-based biomarkers.
GTEx_get_expression_summary— baseline expression across 54 tissues (acceptsgene_symboldirectly)- Tools: Expression Atlas, HPA (tissue expression), EuropePMC scores
- Check expression in disease-relevant tissues for top genes from Phase 1
Phase 3: Proteomics & Interaction Layer
Map protein-protein interactions, identify hub genes, and characterize interaction networks.
UniProt_get_function_by_accession— protein function narrative (essential for mechanistic context)- Tools:
STRING_get_network(param:identifiers,species=9606),intact_get_interactions, HumanBase - Build PPI network from top 15-20 genes; identify hub genes by degree centrality
Phase 4: Pathway & Network Layer
Identify enriched biological pathways and cross-pathway connections.
ReactomeAnalysis_pathway_enrichment— identifiers are newline-separated (\n), NOT space-separatedenrichr_gene_enrichment_analysis— param:gene_list(array),libs(array). NOTE:datafield is a JSON string that needs parsingkegg_search_pathway— pathway keyword search
Phase 5: Gene Ontology & Functional Annotation
Characterize biological processes, molecular functions, and cellular components.
- Tools: Enrichr (GO libraries), QuickGO, GO annotations, OpenTargets GO
- Run GO enrichment for all 3 aspects (BP, MF, CC)
Phase 6: Therapeutic Landscape
Map approved drugs, druggable targets, repurposing opportunities, and clinical trials.
DGIdb_get_drug_gene_interactions— drug interactions by gene (param:genesas array). Often more comprehensive than OpenTargets for drug-gene data.- OpenTargets drugs/tractability (use EFO IDs like
EFO_0000384for Crohn's, not MONDO — MONDO IDs may return null for drug queries) search_clinical_trials—query_termis REQUIRED
Phase 7: Multi-Omics Integration
Integrate findings across all layers. See integration-scoring.md for full details.
- Cross-layer gene concordance: count layers per gene, score multi-layer hub genes
- Direction concordance: genetics + expression agreement
- Biomarker identification: diagnostic, prognostic, predictive
- Mechanistic hypothesis generation
Phase 8: Report Finalization
Write executive summary, calculate confidence score, verify completeness.
- See
integration-scoring.mdfor quality checklist and scoring formula

Phase 7: Multi-Omics Integration
Objective: Integrate findings across all layers to identify cross-layer genes, calculate concordance, and generate mechanistic hypotheses.
Cross-Layer Gene Concordance Analysis
For each gene found in the analysis:
1. Count layers: In how many omics layers does this gene appear?
- Genomics (GWAS, rare variants, genetic association)
- Transcriptomics (DEGs, expression score)
- Proteomics (PPI hub, protein expression)
- Pathways (enriched pathway member)
- Therapeutics (drug target)
2. Score genes: Genes appearing in 3+ layers are "multi-omics hub genes"
3. Direction concordance: Do genetics and expression agree?
- Risk allele + upregulated = concordant gain-of-function
- Risk allele + downregulated = concordant loss-of-function
- Discordant = needs investigation
Biomarker Identification
For each multi-omics hub gene, assess biomarker potential:
- Diagnostic: Gene expression distinguishes disease vs healthy
- Prognostic: Expression/variant predicts outcome (cancer prognostics from HPA)
- Predictive: Variant/expression predicts treatment response (pharmacogenomics)
- Evidence level: Number of supporting omics layers
Mechanistic Hypothesis Generation
From the integrated data: 1. Identify the most supported biological processes (GO + pathways) 2. Map causal chain: genetic variant -> gene expression -> protein function -> pathway disruption -> disease 3. Identify intervention points (druggable nodes in the causal chain) 4. Generate testable hypotheses
Confidence Score Calculation
Calculate the Multi-Omics Confidence Score (0-100) based on:
- Data availability across layers
- Cross-layer concordance
- Evidence quality
- Clinical validation

Phase 0 Workflow
1. Search by disease name to get primary ID (OpenTargets) 2. Get full description and cross-references 3. Get synonyms for search term expansion 4. Get therapeutic areas for context 5. Get disease hierarchy (parents/children) 6. If user provided OMIM/other ID, map to MONDO/EFO first
Collision-Aware Search
- Check if user's input matches any hit exactly
- If ambiguous, present top 3-5 options and ask user to select
- Prefer the most specific disease (not parent categories)
- For cancer, prefer the specific tumor type over generic "cancer"
Key Disease IDs to Track
After disambiguation, store for downstream queries:
efo_id- Primary ID for OpenTargets (e.g.,MONDO_0004975)disease_name- Canonical namesynonyms- For literature search expansiontherapeutic_areas- For contextdbXRefs- Cross-references (OMIM, UMLS, DOID, etc.)

Common Use Patterns
1. Comprehensive Disease Profiling
User: "Characterize Alzheimer's disease across omics layers"
-> Run all 8 phases
-> Produce full multi-omics report2. Therapeutic Target Discovery
User: "What are druggable targets for rheumatoid arthritis?"
-> Emphasize Phase 1 (genomics), Phase 6 (therapeutics), Phase 7 (integration)
-> Focus on tractability and clinical precedent3. Biomarker Identification
User: "Find diagnostic biomarkers for pancreatic cancer"
-> Emphasize Phase 2 (transcriptomics), Phase 3 (proteomics), Phase 7 (biomarkers)
-> Focus on tissue-specific expression and diagnostic potential4. Mechanism Elucidation
User: "What pathways are dysregulated in Crohn's disease?"
-> Emphasize Phase 4 (pathways), Phase 5 (GO), Phase 7 (mechanistic hypotheses)
-> Focus on pathway enrichment and cross-pathway connections5. Drug Repurposing
User: "What existing drugs could be repurposed for ALS?"
-> Emphasize Phase 1 (genetics), Phase 6 (therapeutic landscape), Phase 7 (repurposing)
-> Focus on drugs targeting disease-associated genes6. Systems Biology
User: "What are the hub genes and key pathways in type 2 diabetes?"
-> Emphasize Phase 3 (PPI network), Phase 4 (pathways), Phase 7 (network analysis)
-> Focus on hub genes and network modules---
Edge Case Handling
Rare Diseases (limited data)
- Genomics layer may dominate (single gene)
- Limited GWAS data (monogenic)
- Focus on ClinVar variants, pathway consequences
- Confidence score will be lower (less cross-layer data)
Common Diseases (overwhelming data)
- Thousands of GWAS associations
- Prioritize by effect size and significance
- Focus on top 20-30 genes for downstream analysis
- Use strict significance thresholds (p < 5e-8)
Cancer
- Include somatic mutations (if CIViC/cBioPortal available)
- Check cancer prognostics via HPA
- Include tumor-specific expression patterns
- Clinical trial landscape may be extensive
Monogenic Diseases
- Single gene dominates
- ClinVar/OMIM evidence is primary
- Pathway analysis reveals downstream effects
- Therapeutic landscape may be limited (gene therapy, enzyme replacement)
Polygenic Diseases
- Many weak genetic signals
- GWAS provides the gene list
- Pathway enrichment reveals convergent biology
- Network analysis identifies hub genes
Tissue Ambiguity
- Diseases affecting multiple tissues
- Query HPA for all relevant tissues
- Compare tissue-specific expression patterns
- Use tissue context from disease ontology

Fallback Strategies
If disease name not found
1. Try synonyms 2. Try broader disease category 3. Try OMIM/UMLS ID mapping 4. Report disambiguation failure and ask user
If no GWAS data
1. Check ClinVar for rare variants 2. Use OpenTargets genetic evidence 3. Note in report as "Limited genetic data" 4. Adjust confidence score accordingly
If no expression data
1. Try different disease name/synonym 2. Check HPA for individual gene expression 3. Use OpenTargets expression evidence 4. Note as "Limited transcriptomics data"
If no pathway enrichment
1. Reduce gene list stringency 2. Try different pathway databases 3. Map individual genes to pathways via Reactome 4. Note as "No significant pathway enrichment"
If no drugs found
1. Check if disease is rare/orphan 2. Look for drugs targeting individual genes 3. Check clinical trials for investigational therapies 4. Note as "No approved drugs - novel therapeutic opportunity"
