Why this annotation

Hub genes CAP1, ACTR3, ARPC2, CAPZA2, and CDC42 all function in actin cytoskeleton dynamics (Arp2/3 complex, actin capping, Rho GTPase signaling). BUB3 adds a spindle checkpoint component. Peripheral genes (MRPS10, SDHAF3, COPB2, YBX1) are housekeeping. All genes show weak membership and uniform expression, indicating a loosely coherent module anchored on actin regulation. Neighbor M101 shares vesicular trafficking genes (COPB2/COPI overlap with TMED10), consistent with cytoskeletal-trafficking co-regulation.
