Mechanistic narrative

Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

PRICKLE1 is a core WNT/planar cell polarity (PCP) scaffold protein that organizes cortical cytoskeletal architecture and cell polarity across multiple developmental and morphogenetic contexts (PMID:19706528, PMID:35512799). It acts genetically downstream of the noncanonical WNT5A-ROR2 axis and the core PCP gene Vangl2 to establish apical-basal polarity, orient mitotic spindles, and direct polarized extracellular matrix deposition during epiblast and tissue morphogenesis (PMID:19706528, PMID:25190059). PRICKLE1 binds Dishevelled proteins through its LIM domain, an interaction that underlies its control of cell polarity, neurite outgrowth, and chondrocyte maturation [PMID:22218901, PMID:34423861, PMID:bio_10.1101_2025.03.24.644882]. Mechanistically, PRICKLE1 regulates the actomyosin cortex: diffuse cytoplasmic PRICKLE1 increases cortical F-actin and tension acting upstream of casein kinase II, while at the apical cortex of neuroepithelial cells it drives actomyosin accumulation and apical constriction to power convergence and EMT-driven cell ingression (PMID:35512799, PMID:42045189). It also governs migration through a membrane-localized pool that promotes focal adhesion disassembly via CLASP1/2 and LL5β and assembles a complex with MINK1 and the mTORC2 component RICTOR to activate AKT and drive cancer cell dissemination (PMID:27184734, PMID:27378169). PRICKLE1 controls cadherin switching during epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and polarized basement membrane secretion via microtubule-dependent vesicle trafficking (PMID:30721665, PMID:33144400, PMID:38185785). In the nervous system PRICKLE1 binds SYNAPSIN I and stabilizes the transcriptional repressor REST; the epilepsy/ASD-associated R104Q mutation that disrupts the PRICKLE1–REST interaction reduces excitatory synapse density, lowers seizure threshold, and impairs cognition, establishing PRICKLE1 as a human epilepsy gene (PMID:18976727, PMID:24312498, PMID:34597683). PRICKLE1 protein stability is itself regulated by USP7-mediated deubiquitination and by estrogen-receptor/EZH2-dependent transcriptional repression (PMID:34331380, PMID:39314474).
