Why this annotation

DKC1 (dyskerin, pseudouridylation of rRNA, ribosome biogenesis), IMP4 (U3 snoRNP, rRNA processing), BUD23 (18S rRNA methyltransferase), DDX46 (spliceosome/rRNA), MRPL32 and MRPL11 (mitochondrial ribosomal proteins), CLPP (mitochondrial matrix protease), PSMG1 (proteasome assembly chaperone), POLR2F (RNA Pol II subunit), TXNL4A (U5 snRNP/splicing), SRSF10 (splicing factor), SUPT16H (FACT histone chaperone), CBX5/HP1α (heterochromatin, 7.9x), LMNB1 (nuclear lamina, 15.6x), BCL2L12 (anti-apoptotic). The module combines ribosome biogenesis with nuclear lamina/heterochromatin organization. LMNB1 and CBX5 enrichment in plasmablasts is striking. This reflects the ribosome biogenesis and nuclear organization program supporting plasmablast expansion.
