Celsr1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity. Involved in establishment of planar polarity and neural tube closure. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including apical protein localization; morphogenesis of an epithelium; and motor neuron migration. Located in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; epithelium; primitive streak; renal cortex; and skin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hereditary lymphedema. Orthologous to human CELSR1 (cadherin EGF LAG seven-pass G-type receptor 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Celsr1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • G-protein coupled receptor
  • Hormone receptor domain
  • 7 transmembrane receptor (Secretin family)
  • LamG
  • GPCR-Autoproteolysis INducing (GAIN) domain
  • Human growth factor-like EGF
  • calcium ion binding
  • protein binding
  • Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily (TNFRSF)
  • seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily
