brenda-database SKILL.md skillA
brenda-database from marielynneblock/arcanum-artifex is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add marielynneblock/arcanum-artifex/brenda-database@git:20260710.0115f49Pins git:20260710.0115f49 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Access BRENDA enzyme database via SOAP API. Retrieve kinetic parameters (Km, kcat), reaction equations, organism data, and substrate-specific enzyme information for biochemical research and metabolic pathway analysis.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# BRENDA Database ## Overview BRENDA (BRaunschweig ENzyme DAtabase) is the world's most comprehensive enzyme information system, containing detailed enzyme data from scientific literature. Query kinetic parameters (Km, kcat), reaction equations, substrate specificities, organism information, and optimal conditions for enzymes using the official SOAP API. Access over 45,000 enzymes with millions of kinetic data points for biochemical research, metabolic engineering, and enzyme discovery. ## When to Use This Skill This skill should be used when: - Searching for enzyme kinetic parameters (Km, kcat, Vmax) - Retrieving reaction equations and stoichiometry - Finding enzymes for specific substrates or reactions - Comparing enzyme properties across different organisms - Investigating optimal pH, temperature, and conditions - Accessing enzyme inhibition and activation data - Supporting metabolic pathway reconstruction and retrosynthesis - Performing enzyme engineering and optimisation studies - Analysing substrate specificity and cofactor requirements ## Core Capabilities ### 1. Kinetic Parameter Retrieval Access comprehensive kinetic data for enzymes: …

How to install
mdr add marielynneblock/arcanum-artifex/brenda-database@sha256:551a7f42b85a664dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260710.0115f49, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
