"In an effort to get a feeling for how often morphologs were orthologs, we searched with AlphaFoldDB against itself. In Table 3 of the manuscript we reported that proteins that had non-species morphologs (very) often were also orthologs. The reviewers pointed out that these orthologs might plausibly come from very closely related species, thus weakening our claim that structural similarity might detect functional similarity or orthology over longer evolutionary distances. Here we are revisiting this analysis and looking to exclude "
