Why this annotation

ENPP3 is a canonical mast cell surface marker (CD203c) used to identify mast cells and basophils. ERN1 (IRE1α) is the master UPR sensor. ERGIC3, SURF4, TRAM1 are ER/ERGIC components involved in secretory pathway. ATP2C1 (SPCA1) is a Golgi calcium pump critical for mast cell granule biogenesis. AP1B1 is a clathrin adaptor for vesicle sorting. G6PD and PGD are pentose phosphate pathway enzymes supporting NADPH production. RUNX2 is a transcription factor. The ER/secretory pathway genes (ERN1, ERGIC3, SURF4, TRAM1, ATP2C1) form a coherent UPR/secretory stress program in mast cells, consistent with the module's increase in UC inflammation and decrease with treatment.
