Why this annotation

STAT5B is a key JAK-STAT transcription factor activated downstream of G-CSF/GM-CSF during neutrophil maturation. MAML3 is a Notch transcriptional co-activator implicated in granulopoiesis. PHF21A is a chromatin regulator (KDM1A complex) controlling gene expression during differentiation. PDE3B degrades cAMP to modulate maturation signals. SIPA1L2 is a Rap1 GAP regulating integrin signaling during differentiation. TPST1 performs tyrosine sulfation of surface receptors. EXT1 synthesizes heparan sulfate proteoglycans important for cytokine presentation. KLHL2 is a ubiquitin adaptor regulating protein stability. The module reflects a transcriptional/epigenetic regulatory program associated with neutrophil differentiation and maturation.
