This was done by ensuring that putative orthologous proteins did not show a greater similarity to any paralogs or proteins from more distant species than they did to the proteins included in the analyzed COGs.
As a result of this inspection, five Pyrococcus COGs were removed from the original set of selected proteins.
The method for identifying probable orthologs is based on the genome-specific best hits (BeTs) rationale that underlies the construction of the COGs database [ 4, 5].
The information on orthologous genes in prokaryotic genomes and the yeast genome was derived from the COGs as in the previous approach, and the orthology data were similarly represented as a 0/1 matrix of presence-absence of the analyzed genomes in the COGs.
This selection procedure resulted in a set of 132 families (COGs).
