Hello, Please excuse my limited knowledge with phylogenies. I would like to create an MSA of protein (enzyme) sequences and then generate a tree from that. Is this pipeline useful in that scenario or should I jump into the right tools myself? Thanks in advance for any help.

Unfortunately this pipeline does not create phylogenies, so I'm afraid it can't help you with that. It uses a phylogeny to classify sequences that were not included when tree was made.

To be a bit more complete: I think there are few projects in which fully automatic estimation of phylogenies would make sense. Hence I wouldn't want to add that to this pipeline nor make a pipeline for that purpose. (I think...)

Sure, I didn't expect any changes to the pipeline 🙂

Right, I understood that. It's just that this is actually something I've been thinking about but usually conclude is not a good idea.
