Why this annotation

Hub genes NR1D2 (REV-ERBβ, core circadian clock nuclear receptor), CRY1 (Cryptochrome 1, core circadian clock gene), BHLHE40 (DEC1/SHARP2, circadian-regulated bHLH repressor also induced by hypoxia), MEF2D (MEF2 family TF, T cell survival/differentiation), CDK17 (PctAIRE-related kinase), TSC22D2 (TSC-22 domain, stress/glucocorticoid response), SMAD7 (TGF-β inhibitory SMAD), IRF1 (interferon regulatory factor 1), SLC2A1 (GLUT1, hypoxia/activation metabolism), ITPRIP (IP3R-interacting, calcium signaling). NR1D2+CRY1+BHLHE40 constitute a clear circadian clock module. The additional presence of IRF1, SMAD7, and SLC2A1 may reflect circadian regulation of immune/metabolic genes. This is the most specific signal in the module.

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.
