Why this annotation

Hub genes CLSPN (claspin, replication fork/checkpoint), BRCA1 (DNA damage/HR repair), MCM10 (MCM helicase loading, replication initiation), CDC6 (replication licensing factor), XRCC2 (HR repair), ORC6 (origin recognition complex, replication licensing), DTL/CDT2 (CRL4 ubiquitin ligase, replication licensing control), FAM111B (replication fork), WDR76 (replication-associated). This module is focused on replication origin firing and licensing (ORC6, CDC6, MCM10, CDT1 pathway), with DNA damage checkpoint/repair overlay (BRCA1, CLSPN, XRCC2). Very low pct positive (2.2%) indicates rare, actively licensing cells — likely G1/S boundary. Neighbor to M66 (S-phase) confirms this is the earliest S-phase/replication initiation module.
