Why this annotation

Hub genes are dominated by mitochondrial ribosomal proteins (MRPL4, MRPS18B, MRPS14, MRPL2, MRPS26) with supporting roles from ribosome biogenesis (RSL1D1, PA2G4), RNA processing (SNRPC, DHX9, HNRNPA3), and mitochondrial function (PRDX3, FMC1). Enriched in crypt colonocytes, consistent with high metabolic demand of proliferating crypt cells. Significantly decreased in CD inflammation, suggesting suppression of normal mitochondrial/translational activity during active disease. Neighbor M144 shares mitochondrial components, reinforcing the mitochondrial metabolic theme.
