Why this annotation

All genes show weak membership and uniform expression. Notable genes: RB1CC1 (RB1-inducible coiled-coil 1, autophagy initiation via ULK1 complex), STX17 (syntaxin-17, autophagosome-lysosome fusion), SMAD5 (TGF-beta/BMP signaling), YTHDC1 (m6A RNA reader, nuclear RNA processing), KMT2D (histone methyltransferase), CHD3 (chromatin remodeling), MARCHF6 (E3 ubiquitin ligase, ER-associated degradation), CASC3 (exon junction complex, NMD), DCP1A (mRNA decapping, P-bodies), DCAF16 (CRL4 ubiquitin ligase substrate receptor), HELB (DNA helicase). RB1CC1 and STX17 together strongly suggest autophagy. MARCHF6 and DCAF16 suggest ubiquitin-proteasome/ERAD. The module may loosely represent autophagy and protein quality control, though coherence is weak.
