Why this annotation

BTNL3, XDH, ASS1, CORO2A, TMEM45B, SLC25A37 and PLEKHS1 mark mature colonocytes toward the surface. XDH (purine catabolism), ASS1 (arginine synthesis) and SLC25A37 (mitochondrial iron import) define a metabolic signature. ATP1B3 supports basolateral transport, and BTNL3 is a surface epithelial butyrophilin that regulates intraepithelial gamma-delta T cells.
