Why this annotation

Hub genes: PTMA (prothymosin alpha, chromatin remodeling/nuclear), EEF1A1 (elongation factor 1-alpha, translation), HNRNPA1 (heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein, RNA processing), EEF2 (elongation factor 2, translation), EIF1 (translation initiation factor), TUBA1B (tubulin alpha, cytoskeleton), FTH1/FTL (ferritin heavy/light chains, iron storage), SBDS (ribosome biogenesis/Shwachman-Bodian-Diamond), HNRNPA0 (RNA processing), ANXA2 (annexin A2, membrane/cytoskeleton). The module is dominated by translation elongation factors (EEF1A1, EEF2, EIF1), RNA-binding proteins (HNRNPA1, HNRNPA0), and ribosome biogenesis (SBDS). FTH1/FTL add iron homeostasis. This is a core translational machinery / housekeeping module with high mean expression (2.332) and high pct positive (82.5%), consistent with constitutive housekeeping activity. Neighbor context: highest expressed module in the batch, consistent with housekeeping translation.
