Why this annotation

Dominated by MHC class I genes HLA-A/B/C/E/F and B2M, plus CD48, BANK1. This is a clear antigen presentation / MHC-I module, often interferon-inducible. High expression (mean 1.85, 72% positive). BANK1 and CD48 are B-cell markers confirming intrinsic expression. The coordinated HLA/B2M signature reflects antigen presentation, an interferon-associated antiviral-type program.
