notch-2 (Drosophila) homolog protein (NOTCH2)

Function: - functions as a receptor for membrane-bound ligands Jagged1, Jagged2 & delta1 to regulate cell-fate determination - upon ligand activation through the released notch intracellular domain (NICD) it forms a transcriptional activator complex with RBP-J kappa & activates genes of the enhancer of split locus - affects implementation of differentiation, proliferation & apoptotic programs (putative) - synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum as an inactive form which is proteolytically cleaved by a furin-like convertase in the trans-Golgi network before it reaches the plasma membrane to yield an active, ligand-accessible form - cleavage results in a C-terminal fragment N(TM) & a N-terminal fragment N(EC) - following ligand binding, it is cleaved by TNF-alpha converting enzyme (TACE) to yield a membrane-associated intermediate fragment called notch extracellular truncation (NEXT) - this fragment is then cleaved by presenilin dependent gamma-secretase to release a notch-derived peptide containing the intracellular domain (NICD) from the membrane (putative) - phosphorylated (putative) - heterodimer of a C-terminal fragment N(TM) & an N-terminal fragment N(EC) which are probably linked by disulfide bonds (putative) - interacts with MAML1, MAML2 & MAML3 which act as transcriptional coactivators for NOTCH2 Structure: - belongs to the NOTCH family - contains 6 ANK repeats - contains 35 EGF-like domains - contains 3 LNR (lin/notch) repeats Compartment: - cell membrane; single-pass type 1 membrane protein - notch 2 intracellular domain: nucleus - following proteolytical processing NICD is translocated to the nucleus Expression: - expressed in the brain, heart, kidney, lung, skeletal muscle & liver Pathology: - defects in NOTCH2 are the cause of Alagille syndrome type 2
