Why this annotation

Hub genes include LMNB2 (nuclear lamina, cell cycle), RCC1 (RanGEF, mitosis), CKAP5 (microtubule polymerase, spindle), KIF2A (kinesin, mitosis), RECQL (DNA helicase), alongside RNA processing genes CPSF2, SF3B3, POLR3H. The strongest plasmablast enrichments are for cell cycle genes (LMNB2 9x, CKAP5 7.1x, RCC1 6.7x). Weak coherence reflects a mixed module, but the dominant program is cell cycle/mitotic machinery in proliferating plasmablasts. Upregulated with inflammation and not reversed by treatment.
