Why this annotation

Top hub PTPN7 is a hematopoietic protein tyrosine phosphatase highly expressed in T cells and involved in TCR signal attenuation and lymphocyte differentiation. YWHAE (14-3-3ε) is a signaling scaffold that interacts with many kinases and phosphatases. PSMD14 is a proteasome-associated deubiquitinase. IFIT3 is an interferon-stimulated gene. ZCCHC8 links to RNA exosome/surveillance. DR1 represses transcription. DNAJB11 is an ER chaperone. SAR1A is a COPII vesicle GTPase. The module is heterogeneous (weak-to-moderate membership for most genes) but PTPN7 as dominant hub with YWHAE, PSMD14 suggests a T-cell signaling/proteostasis program. IFIT3 adds a minor interferon thread. Moderate coherence with PTPN7 as an anchor.
