Why this annotation

Hub genes include UBE2K (ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme), RAD23B (ubiquitin receptor/proteasome delivery), PPP2R5A (PP2A phosphatase regulatory subunit), CRK and ABI1 (signaling adaptors), ARF6 (endosomal trafficking), DLG3 (scaffold), and PTBP3 (RNA-binding). The module is upregulated in UC inflammation. The combination of ubiquitin pathway components (UBE2K, RAD23B) with signaling adaptors and a phosphatase subunit suggests ubiquitin-mediated protein turnover and signal transduction, consistent with an inflammatory stress-response signaling program in colonocytes.
