Why this annotation

Hub genes include DDX17, DDX5, SRSF5, RBBP6, DDX3Y, RBM5, YTHDC1, NUFIP2 — all RNA helicases, splicing factors, or RNA-binding proteins involved in RNA processing and splicing regulation. ZKSCAN1 and ZNF207 are zinc finger transcriptional regulators. CIITA is a master regulator of MHC class II expression, and STAT6 is a cytokine signaling transcription factor relevant to DC biology. TOB1 is an anti-proliferative gene. MANBA is a lysosomal enzyme. The dominant theme is RNA processing/splicing (DDX17, DDX5, SRSF5, RBM5, YTHDC1, NUFIP2, RBBP6), with CIITA and STAT6 as notable DC-relevant members. The module likely reflects a basal RNA metabolism and splicing program in DCs, with CIITA co-regulated as part of DC identity.
