Bioinformatic analysis reveals PU.1 as a highly connected hub protein involved in innate and adaptive immunity. a STRING protein-protein interaction network of the top 102 differentially expressed genes specific to mixed glial cultures with PU.1 knockdown implicates PU.1 as a central regulator of altered genes. b Gene ontology analysis demonstrating that PU.1-regulated genes are involved in innate and adaptive immune biological processes. c The majority of PU.1 regulated genes are localized to the extracellular region, MHCII complexes, or aspects of various endocytic pathways. d Molecular functions involved in antigen presentation and actin filament binding were altered by PU.1 silencing
