Cadherin EGF LAG Seven-Pass G-Type Receptor 1 - CISMeF
Cadherin EGF LAG Seven-Pass G-Type Receptor 1NCIt concept
Preferred Label : Cadherin EGF LAG Seven-Pass G-Type Receptor 1;
NCIt synonyms : CELSR1; Protocadherin Flamingo-2 Protein; Protocadherin Flamingo 2; hFmi2; Flamingo Homolog 2; Adhesion G Protein-Coupled Receptor C1; Cadherin Family Member 9;
NCIt definition : Cadherin EGF LAG seven-pass G-type receptor 1 (3014 aa, 329 kDa) is encoded by the
human CELSR1 gene. This protein is involved in cell-cell signaling and adhesion.;
NCIt note : Cadherin EGF LAG Seven-Pass G-Type Receptor 1, encoded by the human CELSR1 gene, is
a G-Protein Coupled Receptor that may have an important role in cell/cell signaling
during nervous system formation. It is an integral membrane protein with seven transmembrane
domains, multiple cadherin repeats, EGF-like repeats, and laminin A G-type repeats.
Two isoforms (1 and 2) may be produced by alternative splicing. The CELSR1 gene is
developmentally regulated and neural-specific and the protein plays an unspecified
role in early embryogenesis.;
