Ancestral Function Inference

Ancestral Function Inference is a computational method in evolutionary biology that reconstructs the biochemical, cellular, or phenotypic activities of ancient biomolecules or genes at ancestral nodes in a phylogenetic tree by integrating sequence reconstruction with functional prediction models.
