Why this annotation

Moderate coherence module strongly enriched in plasmablasts. Hub genes BAZ1B (ISWI chromatin remodeling), PRKDC (DNA-PKcs, DNA double-strand break repair and V(D)J/class switch recombination), SF3B2 (spliceosome SF3b complex), KPNB1 (importin beta-1, nuclear import), PRPF40A (splicing factor), SUZ12 (PRC2 Polycomb repressor), CTCF (chromatin insulator/organizer), SRRM1 (serine/arginine splicing), XPO1 (CRM1 nuclear export), IPO5 (importin 5), ILF3 (NF90, RNA binding/nuclear transport). This module reflects active nuclear transport, chromatin remodeling, and splicing regulation in plasmablasts — consistent with the massive transcriptional reprogramming during plasma cell differentiation. PRKDC's high plasmablast enrichment may reflect class switch recombination.
