Annotation genes
SH2D1A
Annotation rationales
SH2D1A (SAP) supports stable T–B interactions; TCF7/CD27 indicate less-differentiated recall-ready status; low granule burden implies helper/costimulatory slant preceding cytotoxic maturation.
Functional implications
Rapid expansion and provision of costimulation in secondary responses; can differentiate into full Tem killers based on antigen/inflammation strength.
