Hello! Our software is not designed to provide functional annotations to candidate pseudogenes, but does preserve previous annotation information. Additionally, every pseudogene candidate has a unique locus tag which will relate to blast hits in the "[prefix]_blastP_output.tsv" and "[prefix]_blastX_output.tsv" output files. For any pseudogene you are interested in, you can use these hits to guide your analysis.

Best, Mitch
