Why this annotation

This module is weakly coherent with low expression and mostly weak membership. Hub genes include ATP8B4 (P4-ATPase lipid flippase), FLOT1 (flotillin-1, lipid raft scaffold), FUT8 (fucosyltransferase 8, core fucosylation of glycoproteins), JAK3 (Janus kinase 3, cytokine signaling in lymphocytes), KDM5B (histone demethylase), RFC1 (replication factor C, DNA replication), APLP2 (amyloid precursor-like protein 2), LIMS1 (LIM domain, focal adhesion), PLSCR1 (phospholipid scramblase 1, interferon-stimulated), CALCOCO2 (NDP52, selective autophagy receptor), FYCO1 (autophagy/lysosome transport), NCAM1 (CD56, NK cell marker), RETREG1 (reticulophagy), LASP1 (actin-binding), HADHB (mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation). NCAM1 (CD56) is a canonical NK cell marker. JAK3 is critical for NK/ILC cytokine signaling. PLSCR1 is interferon-stimulated. The module shows mild inflammation association. The combination of NK identity (NCAM1), JAK3 signaling, and autophagy/membrane remodeling genes suggests an NK cell activation/cytokine-responsive state. Weak coherence limits confidence.
