Why this annotation

CAPZB caps actin filament barbed ends; LIMS1 (PINCH-1) is an integrin-linked kinase scaffold protein connecting integrins to actin; SGCB (beta-sarcoglycan) is part of the dystrophin-associated protein complex linking cytoskeleton to ECM; TMEM30A is a phosphatidylserine flippase subunit; DERL1 is an ERAD component; WLS is required for Wnt ligand secretion; ARL3 is a small GTPase involved in vesicle trafficking. The module combines cytoskeletal organization (CAPZB, LIMS1, SGCB) with membrane/secretory housekeeping functions. The cytoskeletal genes dominate by PageRank.
