Why this annotation

MPEG1 (macrophage-expressed gene 1/perforin-2), SELPLG (PSGL-1, selectin ligand for leukocyte rolling/migration), DOCK8 (critical for immune cell migration and pDC survival), BLNK (B cell linker protein, also expressed in pDC precursors), ADA2 (adenosine deaminase 2, expressed in monocytes/macrophages), APBB1IP (hematopoietic cell migration), CPT1A and PPARA (fatty acid oxidation/lipid metabolism). The module mixes immune cell migration/adhesion genes with metabolic genes. SELPLG and DOCK8 support a migration/adhesion theme in immune cells. Weak coherence throughout.
