Why this annotation

STX1A (syntaxin-1A) is a SNARE protein mediating vesicle docking and fusion. SYNJ2 (synaptojanin-2) is a phosphoinositide phosphatase regulating endocytic vesicle recycling. FAM20C is a Golgi-localized kinase that phosphorylates secretory pathway proteins. ABHD17C is a depalmitoylase regulating membrane protein trafficking. These four genes define a vesicle fusion and secretory trafficking program. HMGA1 and NRIP1 are transcriptional regulators, DHRS3 is involved in retinol/lipid metabolism, SEMA3F is a secreted semaphorin. The module is a neighbor to M100 (endosomal sorting/HGS/GGA2) and M50 (autophagy/TOM1), consistent with a shared vesicular trafficking neighborhood. Lower expression and detection rate suggest a more specialized or less abundant program.
