Question

The phylogenetic tree of the OCTN homologs below was generated with the following accession numbers as the basis: 

NP_957143.1 - OCTN of unknown function 

CDM63451.1 - OCTN specific for ergothioneine transport 

XP_021324939.1 - OCTN specific for carnitine transport

Which of the Onchorhyncus mykiss homologs has the most probable function as an ergothioneine transporter? Why?
