Why this annotation

This moderate-coherence module contains a heterogeneous mix of genes. ALKBH7 (mitochondrial RNA demethylase), MRPS26 and MRPL34 (mitochondrial ribosomal subunits), COQ8A (coenzyme Q biosynthesis), TECR (fatty acid elongation in ER), FDFT1 (squalene synthase, cholesterol biosynthesis), DPM3 (dolichol-phosphate mannose synthase, glycosylation), OSTM1 (osteoclast stimulating factor, lysosomal), PDIA4 (ER protein disulfide isomerase), ATF6B (ER stress/UPR transcription factor), MGMT (DNA repair methyltransferase), SRSF8 (splicing factor), EIF3M (translation initiation), MAF1 (RNA Pol III repressor), BCAS1 (myelination-associated). The module combines mitochondrial, ER, and metabolic programs loosely. The ILC1 enrichment is moderate (2.1–3.0x). The strongest coherent sub-theme is mitochondrial/metabolic housekeeping with ER components. Given the mix of mitochondrial ribosomal genes, OxPhos-related (COQ8A, ALKBH7), and ER/lipid metabolism genes, this is best classified as a mixed metabolic/mitochondrial housekeeping module.
