Why this annotation

Hub genes: EIF3A (translation initiation, eIF3 complex), RIF1 (replication timing, DNA repair, chromatin organization), SMARCC1 (SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, transcriptional regulation of stemness and differentiation), USP48 (deubiquitinase, chromatin regulation), RFX7 (transcription factor, regulates quiescence and metabolism in lymphocytes/progenitors), HNRNPM (RNA splicing), EIF5B (translation initiation GTPase), CBX3 (HP1 gamma, heterochromatin), SYNCRIP (RNA binding, hnRNP-Q), TOP2B (topoisomerase II beta, transcription-coupled DNA topology), GDF11 (TGF-beta family ligand, developmental). The module combines chromatin remodeling (SMARCC1, CBX3, RIF1), transcription factor activity (RFX7), and translational control (EIF3A, EIF5B, HNRNPM, SYNCRIP), consistent with a gene regulatory/chromatin remodeling program active in progenitor cells. The neighbor context (cell cycle module M14, housekeeping M38) supports this being a proliferation-coupled chromatin regulation program.
