Why this annotation

Hub genes PIP5K1B (PI(4,5)P2 synthesis, regulates endocytosis and integrin signaling), ITPR2 (IP3 receptor type 2, calcium release from ER), EPS15L1 (endocytic adaptor, clathrin-mediated endocytosis), ITGA4 (integrin alpha-4, mediates mast cell homing to gut via MAdCAM-1/VCAM-1), RALGAPA2 (Ral GTPase activating protein), PCSK5 (proprotein convertase). ITGA4 is critical for mast cell trafficking to the intestinal mucosa. PIP5K1B and ITPR2 link phosphoinositide and calcium signaling. EPS15L1 connects to receptor endocytosis. The module reflects integrin-mediated adhesion and calcium/phosphoinositide signaling relevant to mast cell tissue homing and activation.
