Why this annotation

Hub genes GMFG (glia maturation factor gamma, actin dynamics), COTL1 (coactosin-like, actin-binding), CNN2 (calponin 2, actin/cytoskeleton), RHOG (Rho GTPase, cytoskeletal signaling), TUBA1A (alpha-tubulin), LIMD2 (LIM domain, focal adhesion/cytoskeletal), GNB2 (G-protein beta subunit, chemoattractant signaling), SELL (L-selectin, rolling/adhesion), SELPLG neighbor context, LILRA5/LILRA6 (activating immunoglobulin receptors), GPSM3 (G-protein signaling), LSP1 (lymphocyte-specific protein 1, F-actin binding), CDKN2D (CDK inhibitor, cell cycle exit). The dominant program is cytoskeletal reorganization and motility, with SELL and LILRA5/6 indicating a circulating/patrolling neutrophil state. LTB (lymphotoxin-B) and GLIPR1 are minor members. This cohesively represents a neutrophil migration/adhesion module.

Most correlated modules

Module annotations were drafted by a large language model from the module's genes, then reviewed and approved by a domain expert. See sources & licences.
