Why this annotation

Module is enriched in prolif_mac. Hub genes NOP58, WDR43, and RIOK1 are core ribosome biogenesis factors; NUP93 is a nuclear pore component required for rRNA export; ANAPC5 is part of the APC/C cell cycle complex; RNASEH2B supports DNA replication; MGMT is a DNA repair enzyme; MGME1 maintains mitochondrial DNA during replication; NAA15/NAA25 form the NatA N-terminal acetyltransferase complex active in proliferating cells; RBMX is an RNA-binding protein upregulated in proliferation. The convergence of ribosome biogenesis, nuclear pore, APC/C, and DNA maintenance genes in proliferating macrophages defines this as a ribosome biogenesis/cell cycle support module.
