Marker Gene Evidence

Gene markers used by researcher to assign this cell annotation.

BEST4, OTOP2, KLK15, SPIB, CA7, CFTR

Canonical Marker Genes

BEST4, OTOP2, CA7

Rationale

A BEST4 enterocyte population is annotated for some clusters enriched in SI. These tend to have other antimicrobial/mucus regulating/ionic gradient enzymes upregulated as well

Inherited from Prelim annotation
