Why this annotation

Hub genes include EIF3F, EIF3E, EIF3D, EIF3L (eukaryotic initiation factor 3 subunits, translation initiation complex), EIF4B (translation initiation factor 4B), COX7A2L (cytochrome c oxidase assembly factor/supercomplex assembly), NDUFB5 (NADH dehydrogenase complex I subunit), and GPR160 (orphan GPCR). The module is dominated by eIF3 complex subunits (EIF3F, EIF3E, EIF3D, EIF3L) and EIF4B, making translation initiation the primary program. COX7A2L and NDUFB5 link to mitochondrial function, consistent with the neighborhood. Uniform expression, all core, decreased in inflammation and restored by CD treatment — housekeeping translation machinery. The eIF3 complex is the most prominent feature.
