Why this annotation

Top hub DYNC1H1 (cytoplasmic dynein heavy chain, microtubule motor), TACC1 (microtubule/centrosome-associated), and TPM4 (tropomyosin, actin cytoskeleton) anchor a cytoskeletal program. CTNNB1 (beta-catenin, Wnt/cytoskeletal), NFATC2 (NFAT TF, T cell activation), CHD8 and EP400 (chromatin remodelers), YTHDF2 (m6A RNA modification), RNF4 (ubiquitin E3 ligase), and RASSF2 (Ras-association, apoptosis/cytoskeletal) add chromatin and signaling dimensions. The dominant cytoskeletal/motor theme (dynein, TACC1, TPM4) distinguishes this module. The co-expression with chromatin remodelers may reflect coupled cytoskeletal-nuclear reorganization in T cell activation.
