Celsr1 and Celsr2 exhibit distinct adhesive interactions and contributions to planar cell polarity
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 Cadherin EGF LAG seven-pass G-type receptor (Celsr) proteins 1-3 comprise a subgroup of adhesion GPCRs whose functions range from planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling to axon pathfinding and ciliogenesis. Like its Drosophila ortholog, Flamingo, mammalian

Dynamics of the Actin Cytoskeleton at Adhesion Complexes
Biology, 2021 The shape of cells is altered to allow cells to adapt to their changing environments, including responding to internally generated and externally applied force. Force is sensed by cell surface adhesion proteins that are enriched in sites where cells bind

Desmoglein-2 as a cancer modulator: friend or foe?
Frontiers in Oncology, 2023 Desmoglein-2 (DSG2) is a calcium-binding single pass transmembrane glycoprotein and a member of the large cadherin family. Until recently, DSG2 was thought to only function as a cell adhesion protein embedded within desmosome junctions designed to enable

Niche Cadherins Control the Quiescence-to-Activation Transition in Muscle Stem Cells
Cell Reports, 2017 Many adult stem cells display prolonged quiescence, promoted by cues from their niche. Upon tissue damage, a coordinated transition to the activated state is required because non-physiological breaks in quiescence often lead to stem cell depletion and ...

Cells, 2022 Cell–cell junctions are pivotal for embryogenesis and tissue homeostasis but also play a major role in tumorigenesis, tumor invasion, and metastasis. E-cadherin (CDH1) and N-cadherin (CDH2) are two adherens junction’s transmembrane glycoproteins with ...
