Why this annotation

No dominant pathway: a grab-bag of ubiquitously expressed maintenance genes spanning proteasome (PSMB2), chromatin (HMGN1), mitochondrial transport/respiration (SLC25A5, MRPL57, UQCRC1), vesicle trafficking (TMED2, CHMP2A), translation control (PAIP2) and actin regulation (NCKAP1). Moderate coherence with mostly moderate/weak memberships and uniform, low detection is typical of a broadly co-varying housekeeping/ambient-depth module rather than a defined biological program. Its neighbors (M110, M123, M55) are similarly generic maintenance modules, supporting a shared library-size/basal-metabolism driver.
