Why this annotation

Hub genes include CACYBP (calcyclin-binding protein, involved in ubiquitination/proteasome targeting), TMED2 (COPI vesicle/ER-Golgi trafficking), CCT6A (chaperonin complex subunit), TKT (transketolase, pentose phosphate pathway), MRPL13 (mitochondrial ribosomal protein), RTN4 (reticulon, ER shaping), HNRNPR (RNA binding/splicing), SLC44A1 (choline transporter), AK3 (adenylate kinase, mitochondrial), PDIA6 (protein disulfide isomerase, ER folding). The module combines ER protein processing (TMED2, RTN4, PDIA6), chaperone (CCT6A), RNA processing (HNRNPR), mitochondrial (MRPL13, AK3), and metabolic (TKT) functions. Uniform expression, all core, decreased in inflammation — housekeeping. The ER/protein folding components (PDIA6, TMED2, RTN4, CCT6A) are prominent, suggesting protein processing emphasis.
