Why this annotation

Hub genes include SEC11A (signal peptidase complex), SEC61B (ER translocon), PDIA3/PDIA6/P4HB (protein disulfide isomerases), PPIB (cyclophilin B), CALR (calreticulin), HSPA5 (BiP/GRP78), and MLEC (malectin) — all canonical ER protein folding and quality control components. CHPT1 and PLIN2 add lipid metabolic context. This is a tightly coherent ER protein processing/secretory pathway module expressed broadly (housekeeping).
