Why this annotation

Hub genes include TIA1 (RNA-binding protein, stress granule assembly, splicing), SRSF3 (serine/arginine-rich splicing factor), HP1BP3 (heterochromatin protein 1 binding protein, chromatin), RBM14 (RNA-binding, splicing coactivator), HNRNPA2B1 (heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein, splicing/mRNA transport), SRSF2 (splicing factor), HNRNPA3 (splicing), HNRNPL (splicing), SUGP2 (splicing factor), CIRBP (cold-inducible RNA-binding protein, stress response). TIA1 is also a stress granule marker. UBE2W and UBE2G2 are ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes. H3-3B is histone H3.3. The dominant theme is RNA splicing/processing with a stress granule component (TIA1, CIRBP). This module neighbors M88 (splicing) and M67 (splicing), reinforcing the RNA processing theme. The stress granule angle (TIA1, CIRBP) adds a stress-response flavor but splicing is the dominant program.
