Why this annotation

Hub genes CCT2, CCT3, CCT4, CCT5 (all strong/core members) are subunits of the TRiC/CCT chaperonin complex, which folds actin, tubulin, and other proteins. PTGES3 (p23, Hsp90 co-chaperone), STIP1 (Hsp70/Hsp90 organizing protein), CACYBP (calcyclin-binding protein involved in ubiquitination), PSMB4/PSMD13 (proteasome) extend the chaperone-proteasome axis. EIF5A (translation factor) and NOP58 (rRNA processing) are peripheral. The CCT complex dominates with 4 subunits as top hub genes. This is a chaperonin-mediated protein folding module, neighboring the proteasome-heavy M74.
