Why this annotation

All eight genes encode molecular chaperones or co-chaperones: HSPD1 (HSP60, mitochondrial chaperonin), TCP1 and CCT4 (CCT/TRiC chaperonin complex subunits), STIP1 (HOP, HSP70-HSP90 organizing protein), AHSA1 (AHA1, HSP90 ATPase activator), FKBP4 (FKBP52, HSP90 co-chaperone), DNAJB6 (HSP40 co-chaperone), and CHORDC1 (CS domain HSP90 co-chaperone). This is an exceptionally coherent proteostasis/chaperone module representing the heat shock protein network. Neighbor context: sits alongside ISR (M48) and inflammatory modules, consistent with proteotoxic stress in inflamed lymphatic endothelium.
