Why this annotation

Hub genes are mitochondrial ribosomal proteins (MRPS34, MRPL36, MRPL20), mitochondrial import/assembly factors (TIMM10, BOLA3, SLIRP) and proteasome subunits (PSMA3, PSMB5) plus POLR2I. This is a mitochondrial biogenesis/translation and protein turnover module reflecting high metabolic activity in proliferating B cells. Core coherence, uniform expression, inflammation-associated. Shares the biosynthetic/proteostasis theme with neighbors M15 and M8.
