Why this annotation

TBK1 (innate immune kinase activating IRF3/NF-κB), JAK1 (JAK-STAT cytokine signaling), ZC3H12C (MCPIP3, mRNA decay regulator of inflammatory transcripts), MAP4K4 (stress/inflammatory MAPK cascade), and ADAM17 (ectodomain shedding of cytokine receptors/ligands) define an innate immune/cytokine signaling program. AGO2 adds post-transcriptional regulation of immune gene expression. NAMPT (NAD biosynthesis, inflammatory mediator) and FNIP2 (mTOR/AMPK, metabolic immune regulation) are supporting members. This module is a topological neighbor of M19 (NF-κB), representing the TBK1-JAK1 downstream signaling arm.
