Why this annotation

Highly coherent module with all genes as core members. ZFP36L1 and ZFP36L2 (TTP family mRNA destabilizers, anti-proliferative), TOB1 (anti-proliferative, mRNA deadenylation), GADD45A (DNA damage/growth arrest), PLK2 (stress-induced kinase), TSPYL2 (growth suppressor), BCL6 (transcriptional repressor), FUS (RNA binding), MAT2A (one-carbon metabolism), RBBP6 (RNA processing), ABHD5 (lipid signaling), EIF4A1 (translation). The ZFP36L1/L2-TOB1-GADD45A axis forms a strong anti-proliferative/mRNA stability program. Very large increase in UC remission (0.748), decrease in CD remission (-0.571). Neighbors M24 (ZFP36) and M50 (ATF3/stress) support stress-induced growth arrest context.
