inparanoid	4.1	The InParanoid program was developed at the Center for Genomics and Bioinformatics to address the need to identify orthologs. Homologs that originate from a speciation event are called orthologs and homologs that originate from a gene duplication event are called paralogs. If a duplication event predates the speciation event the parlogs are called outparalogs, and they can be present in different species. If instead an ortholog undegoes one or several duplication events, the resulting paralogs are called inparalogs, and they are co-orthologs to one or more orthologs in another species. Since an outparalog pair ought to have a more diversified function than inparalogs, it is useful to distinguish between the two. Furthermore, clustering inparalogs together allows proper identification of both one-to-one and many-to-many orthology cases.

It provides not only groups shared by two or more species/genomes, but also groups representing species-specific gene expansion families. So it serves as an important utility for automated eukaryotic genome annotation. OrthoMCL starts with reciprocal best hits within each genome as potential in-paralog/recent paralog pairs and reciprocal best hits across any two genomes as potential ortholog pairs. Related proteins are interlinked in a similarity graph. Then MCL (Markov Clustering algorithm,Van Dongen 2000; www.micans.org/mcl) is invoked to split mega-clusters. This process is analogous to the manual review in COG construction. MCL clustering is based on weights between each pair of proteins, so to correct for differences in evolutionary distance the weights are normalized before running MCL.
