S. cerevisiae NUP49 and the Ashbya sequence ASHGO_ADL045W were pruned because the reviews I have referred to consider NUP49 to be equivalent to vertebrate NUP58, which comprises the PTHR13437 family (NUCLEOPORIN P58/P45 NUCLEOPORIN-LIKE PROTEIN 1). NUP49 is clearly missing some blocks of highly conserved residues compared to the other Sc sequences in this family. However, from the MSA, it looks like NUP49 is somewhat related to the NUP100, NUP116, and NUP145N sequences that do belong in this family; I might not have picked up on it not belonging in this family from the MSA alone. # REFERENCE Annotation inferences using phylogenetic trees The goal of the GO Reference Genome Project, described in PMID 19578431, is to provide accurate, complete and consistent GO annotations for all genes in twelve model organism genomes. To this end, GO curators are annotating evolutionary trees from the PANTHER database with GO terms describing molecular function, biological process and cellular component. GO terms based on experimental data from the scientific literature are used to annotate ancestral genes in the phylogenetic tree by sequence similarity (ISS), and unannotated descendants of these ancestral genes are inferred to have inherited these same GO annotations by descent. The annotations are done using a tool called PAINT (Phylogenetic Annotation and INference Tool).
