Why this annotation

Core members are translation and RNA-binding/processing machinery: EIF5 (initiation factor), FUS (RNA-binding), CDV3 (translation-associated), TCP1 (CCT chaperonin folding nascent chains), PPP1R10/PNUTS (nuclear PP1 in RNA processing), plus chromatin/TF genes (EPC1, ZEB1, MAFB) as peripheral members. Coherence is moderate, consistent with a translation/RNA-processing backbone with some regulatory hitchhikers; it neighbors M124 (SRSF3/PABPC1) supporting a shared biosynthetic axis.
