Why this annotation

Hub genes FOSB, NR4A1, EGR1, ATF3, BTG2, and IRF1 are canonical immediate-early genes (IEGs) induced rapidly upon cellular activation or stress. PLK3 is a stress-activated kinase. DNAJA1 is a co-chaperone co-induced with IEGs. SRSF7, DDX3X, EIF5, EIF4A3 represent co-regulated RNA processing machinery. The module is core coherence, tightly co-regulated, and significantly upregulated in inflammation. This is a classic immediate-early transcriptional response program.
