Why this annotation

WDR1 (AIP1, cofactor for cofilin-mediated actin disassembly) links this module to the actin remodeling neighborhood (M106, M51). RCC2 regulates RanGTP and microtubule dynamics. ATP2A2 (SERCA2) and CALU are ER calcium-handling proteins. ELOVL5 and ACOT7 are fatty acid metabolism enzymes. UFD1 and PSMD7 are ubiquitin-proteasome pathway members. GTF2A2 is a basal transcription factor. LYAR is a nucleolar protein. The module is functionally mixed but the strongest inflammation signal in the batch (delta UC 0.46, CD 0.38) and reversal in remission suggest a stress-coupled housekeeping response. The ER calcium + actin disassembly combination is consistent with cytoskeletal stress in inflamed endothelium.
