Mechanistic narrative

Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

CELSR1 is the core mammalian planar cell polarity (PCP) organizer, the first vertebrate member of the flamingo/starry night pathway, required to coordinate cell orientation across diverse epithelia and to initiate neural tube closure (PMID:12842012). It is a cleavage-deficient adhesion GPCR whose large cadherin ectodomain mediates homophilic adhesion: cryo-EM and crystallographic structures of the extracellular region show 14 domains in which an N-terminal CADH1-8 segment drives cell-cell adhesion while a C-terminal CADH9-GAIN compact module regulates adhesion and signaling, with Ca2+-dependent dimerization through the cadherin repeats (PMID:40295529, PMID:38307021). CELSR1 forms dense, highly stable punctate junctional assemblies through both trans- and cis-interactions; the PCP-mutant Celsr1Crsh selectively loses lateral cis-interactions, becomes mobile, and fails to organize Frizzled6 and Vangl2 into asymmetric junctional complexes, a defect rescuable by ectopic cis-dimerization (PMID:33529151). This stable junctional enrichment, rather than partner binding per se, distinguishes CELSR1 from CELSR2, since CELSR1 alone establishes epidermal PCP asymmetry despite both family members interacting equivalently with Vangl2 and Fz6 (PMID:36712970), and it recruits VANGL2 to cell-cell contacts (PMID:24632739). Through this activity CELSR1 directs collective polarity in skin, lung, oviduct, inner ear, and lymphatic valve tissues, acting upstream of Rho kinase in lung branching (PMID:20223754), coordinating intercellular basal body orientation in multiciliated cells (PMID:33468623), and limiting VE-cadherin/adherens junction maturation to permit dynamic endothelial movements during valve formation (PMID:23792146). CELSR1 also functions non-cell-autonomously in facial branchiomotor neuron migration, where neuroepithelial CELSR1 suppresses Wnt5a-mediated rostral chemoattraction to enforce caudal migration (PMID:27395006, PMID:36325991). Biochemically, CELSR1 couples to GαS through a cleavage- and tethered-agonist-independent mechanism, since it lacks GAIN autoproteolysis yet tethered-agonist point mutants retain GαS coupling (PMID:37224017). Human and mouse CELSR1 variants cause craniorachischisis and neural tube defects by disrupting plasma-membrane trafficking, junctional localization, VANGL2 recruitment, and PCP signaling (PMID:22095531, PMID:24632739, PMID:38272662).

2003 Missense mutations in Celsr1 (spin cycle and crash alleles) disrupt planar cell polarity of inner ear hair cells and cause severe neural tube defects due to failure to initiate neural tube closure in mice, establishing Celsr1 as the first mammalian member of the flamingo/starry night PCP pathway. ENU mutagenesis, missense mutation identification, phenotypic analysis of heterozygous and homozygous mutants Current biology : CB High 12842012
2011 Missense variants in human CELSR1 associated with craniorachischisis abolish or diminish trafficking of CELSR1 protein to the plasma membrane, without affecting protein-protein interactions; comparable membrane trafficking defects were seen in crash and spin cycle mouse Celsr1 mutants. Subcellular protein localization assays, protein-protein interaction assays, sequencing of human CRN patients Human mutation Medium 22095531
2010 Celsr1 (Crash allele) is required for normal lung branching morphogenesis; mutant lungs show fewer branches, thickened mesenchyme, disrupted epithelial integrity, perturbed cytoskeletal remodelling, and failure of mutant endoderm to branch in response to FGF10; this phenotype is recapitulated by Rho kinase inhibition, placing Celsr1 upstream of Rho kinase in lung PCP signaling. Mouse mutant analysis (Celsr1Crsh), Rho kinase inhibitor treatment, ex vivo branching assay with FGF10 Human molecular genetics Medium 20223754
2013 Celsr1 is recruited from endothelial filopodia to discrete membrane domains at cell-cell contacts during lymphatic valve morphogenesis and regulates dynamic endothelial cell movements by inhibiting stabilization of VE-cadherin and maturation of adherens junctions. Celsr1-deficient mouse analysis, live imaging of endothelial cell behaviors, localization studies of Celsr1 and VE-cadherin Developmental cell High 23792146
2010 Celsr1 functions non-cell-autonomously in facial branchiomotor (FBM) neuron migration: Celsr1 is expressed in FBM neuron precursors and the floor plate (not in migrating FBM neurons themselves), and its loss causes neurons to migrate rostrally instead of caudally. Celsr1 is epistatic to Celsr2 in this context. Knock-out and Crash allele mouse analysis, conditional inactivation, genetic epistasis (Celsr2 epistatic to Celsr1) The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience High 20631168
2014 Celsr1 is required for multilevel polarity in the mouse oviduct: it is concentrated at specific cellular boundaries perpendicular to the ovary-uterus axis; its loss randomizes ciliary beat orientation, cell elongation/orientation, and epithelial fold directionality. Mosaic analysis shows that Celsr1 primarily regulates epithelial cell geometry, which secondarily aligns epithelial folds. Celsr1-deficient mouse analysis, mosaic analysis, immunofluorescence localization, ciliary motion assays Development (Cambridge, England) High 25406397
2014 Two TG dinucleotide repeat variants in CELSR1 found in spina bifida patients change its subcellular localization and impair its physical association with VANGL2, diminishing the ability of CELSR1 to recruit VANGL2 to cell-cell contacts. In vitro subcellular localization assay, co-immunoprecipitation (physical interaction assay between CELSR1 and VANGL2) PloS one Medium 24632739
2016 Celsr1 functions non-cell-autonomously in FBM neuron migration: conditional inactivation specifically in the ventricular zone of rhombomeres r3-r5 (not in the floor plate) causes rostral migration of FBM neurons, indicating that Celsr1 in the adjacent neuroepithelium suppresses signals that could otherwise attract FBM neurons rostrally. Conditional (Cre-lox) inactivation of Celsr1 in specific cell types, dye fill experiments to trace neuron origins Developmental biology High 27395006
2019 The CELSR1 missense mutation P870L (c.2609G>A) is a gain-of-function mutation that upregulates both the PCP pathway and canonical WNT signaling in cells, and induces both neural tube defects and congenital heart defects in zebrafish embryos. In vitro cell-based assay for PCP and WNT pathway activity, zebrafish in vivo injection assay Clinical science (London, England : 1979) Medium 27756857
2021 Mouse Celsr1 engages in both trans- and cis-interactions, forming dense and highly stable punctate assemblies at junctions. The PCP-mutant variant Celsr1Crsh selectively impairs lateral cis-interactions, displays increased mobility, fails to engage in homophilic adhesion with wild-type protein, and consequently fails to organize Frizzled6 and Vangl2 into asymmetric junctional complexes, a defect rescuable by ectopic cis-dimerization. Biochemical assays, super-resolution microscopy, FRAP, co-immunoprecipitation with Fzd6 and Vangl2, ectopic cis-dimerization rescue experiment eLife High 33529151
2021 In mouse oviduct multi-ciliated cells, CELSR1 is required for intercellular coordination of basal body (BB) orientation, while CAMSAP3 (a microtubule minus-end regulator) controls intracellular BB orientation; CELSR1 loss disrupts intercellular but not intracellular polarity coordination, and does not affect CAMSAP3 localization.

2017 Celsr1 controls branching of apical neural progenitor cell (aNPC) basal processes abutting the meninges and thereby regulates retinoic acid (RA)-dependent neurogenesis. Loss of Celsr1 decreases endfeet number, modifies RA-dependent transcriptional activity, and biases aNPC commitment toward self-renewal at the expense of basal progenitor and neuron production, resulting in cortical hypoplasia. Celsr1 loss-of-function mouse analysis, RA transcriptional activity assay, progenitor fate quantification Molecular psychiatry Medium 29257130
2017 Celsr1 is asymmetrically distributed at cell boundaries between hair cells and neighboring supporting cells in developing vestibular and auditory sensory epithelia; loss of Celsr1 results in misoriented stereociliary bundles of vestibular hair cells, particularly in the cristae of the semicircular canals. Celsr1 knockout mouse analysis, immunofluorescence localization, behavioral analysis (circling) Developmental biology Medium 28159525
2023 CELSR1 and CELSR3 are cleavage-deficient (lack autoproteolytic cleavage at the GAIN domain), while CELSR2 is efficiently cleaved. Despite this, CELSR1-3 all engage GαS. CELSR1 tethered agonist (TA) point mutants retain GαS coupling activity, indicating CELSR1 signals via a cleavage-independent mechanism distinct from the canonical tethered-agonist paradigm. G protein coupling assays, autoproteolysis assays, tethered agonist point mutant analysis Cell reports High 37224017
2024 CELSR1 tethered agonist (TA) point mutants retain GαS coupling activity; CELSR1 and CELSR3 are cleavage-deficient, while CELSR2 autoproteolysis enhances GαS coupling, yet acute TA exposure alone is insufficient for full activation.

2025 Cryo-EM reconstruction of the mouse CELSR1 extracellular region (ECR) at 3.8 Å reveals 14 domains forming a compact module via conserved interactions between the CADH9 and C-terminal GAIN domains. In the presence of Ca2+, the CELSR1 ECR forms a dimer species via cadherin repeats putatively in antiparallel fashion. Cell-based assays show the N-terminal CADH1-8 repeat is required for cell-cell adhesion, while the C-terminal CADH9-GAIN compact module regulates cellular adhesion/signaling. Cryo-EM structure determination (3.8 Å), cell-based adhesion assays, domain deletion analysis Nature communications High 40295529
2024 Crystal structures of human CELSR1 EC1-4 and EC4-7 reveal typical cadherin folds with a non-canonical linker between EC5 and EC6. EC1-4 only dimerizes at high concentration in solution; EC7-MAD10 mediates dimerization; simulations and experiments indicate flexibility at EC5-6. Cell-based bead aggregation assays do not support strong adhesion by EC repeats alone, suggesting weak homophilic adhesion by CELSR1 cadherin repeats. X-ray crystallography (EC1-4 and EC4-7 crystal structures), bead aggregation assays, solution dimerization assays, molecular dynamics simulations Structure (London, England : 1993) High 38307021
2023 Celsr1 is the major Celsr family member driving epidermal planar cell polarity: removal of Celsr1 alone abolishes PCP protein asymmetry and hair follicle polarization, whereas loss of Celsr2 alone has no effect on epidermal PCP. FRAP assays show Celsr1 stably enriches at junctional interfaces while Celsr2 is much less efficiently recruited; both interact equivalently with Vangl2 and Fz6. CRISPR/Cas9 knockout of Celsr1 and Celsr2, FRAP, junctional enrichment assay, co-immunoprecipitation with Vangl2 and Fz6 Frontiers in cell and developmental biology High 36712970
2022 Celsr1 suppresses Wnt5a-mediated chemoattraction to direct caudal facial branchiomotor (FBM) neuron migration: in Celsr1;Wnt5a double mutants, FBM neurons never migrate rostrally; Wnt5a-coated beads attract FBM neurons rostrally in wild-type explants; and overexpression of Wnt5a in r3 of Celsr1 mutants greatly enhances rostral migration, establishing a genetic epistasis mechanism. Genetic epistasis (double mutant Celsr1;Wnt5a), bead implantation assay in hindbrain explants, Wnt5a overexpression in Celsr1 mutant background Development (Cambridge, England) High 36325991
2010 Celsr1 protein is enriched at the basal surface of neuroepithelial cells within the early neural tube and in ventricular zone cells at the spinal cord midline, and this basal enrichment is lost in Celsr1 homozygous mutant embryos; this basal localization is spatiotemporally associated with dorsal sensory tract morphogenesis. Immunofluorescence localization in wild-type and Celsr1 mutant embryos, comparative analysis of protein distribution Molecular and cellular neurosciences Medium 20353824
2020 Knockdown of Celsr1 in the subventricular zone (SVZ) after cerebral ischemia reduces neuroblast proliferation, CD31-positive cell number, and motor function, and increases apoptosis and infarct volume; these effects are associated with downregulation of p-PKC, placing Celsr1 upstream of Wnt/PKC signaling in post-ischemic neurogenesis and angiogenesis.
