Transducer Effector/Response
Other - See Comments
Comments:  Principal transduction via Rho kinase [16]. Upregulated Rho kinase subsequently induces anisotropic contraction of the adherens junctions and results in bending of the neural plate, contributing towards neural-tube closure, a critical step during embryogenesis.

Celsr1–3 expression was initiated broadly in the nervous system at early developmental stages, and each paralog showed characteristic expression patterns in the developing CNS. These genes were also expressed in several other organs, including the cochlea, where hair cells develop planar polarity, the kidney, and the whisker.

General Comments
Known ligand interactions: Vangl2 (core PCP protein) [6], VhaPRR (accessory unit of the proton pump V-ATPase) via HRM domain of CELSR1 [14].

CELSR1 (cadherin, EGF LAG seven-pass G-type receptor 1) is an orphan receptor that belongs to Family IV Adhesion-GPCRs together with CELSR2 and 3 [10]. The gene is localized on human chromosome 22 and mouse chromosome 15. Family IV Adhesion-GPCRs have orthologs in vertebrate and invertebrate species.
