Why this annotation

FYN (Src-family kinase, TCR proximal signaling), CBLB (E3 ligase, TCR/CD28 negative regulator linked to anergy/exhaustion), PIK3IP1 (PI3K inhibitor, raises T cell activation threshold), SLA (Src-like adaptor, inhibitory), SOCS1 (suppressor of cytokine signaling), AFF4 (super elongation complex), ISG20 (interferon-stimulated gene), and PPM1B (phosphatase, inactivates stress kinases). The co-occurrence of FYN, CBLB, PIK3IP1, SLA, and SOCS1 — all negative regulators of TCR and cytokine signaling — defines a T cell inhibitory/exhaustion regulatory program. Neighbor context with M40 (TCR threshold) reinforces this interpretation.
