Genes expected to be absent, or expressed at a notably low level, in these cells, and whose absence supports the assignment of this cell annotation.

Rationale
Top differential gene expression mapped most with NKp44- ILC3 in Azimuth tonsil dataset, high expression of HLA-DR and subpopulation of ILC3 with high HLA-DR has been described (see DOI)
Cell annotations were based on the finest possible label to describe the 18 clusters found across both culture conditions (control and stimulated) following integration and clustering. Gene expression across clusters correlated with matched cell annotations in the uncultured, whole lymph node dataset (LN partial T and B cell depletion) in addition to some culture-specific cell clusters
