Chaperone proteostasis stress

Gene co-expression module in Paneth cells

Why this annotation

The module mixes ER chaperones (HSP90B1, PDIA3), a cytosolic chaperone (HSP90AB1), OxPhos genes (COX4I1, ATP5IF1) and an antioxidant (PRDX5). It also contains CD63, S100A6, IFI27, and the quiescence marker CDKN1C. The most coherent theme is a proteostasis/chaperone stress program in highly secretory Paneth cells, with a metabolic component. The ER chaperones have weaker membership, so the module is somewhat mixed. It neighbors the secretory granule module M1.

Genes

Most correlated modules

Module annotations were drafted by a large language model from the module's genes, then reviewed and approved by a domain expert. See sources & licences.
