1 Jan 2005
Abstract excerpt
The Notch proteins encompass a family of transmembrane receptors that have been highly conserved through evolution as mediators of cell fate, and are comprised of 4 members in mammals (Notch1 to Notch4). Following intra cellular processing of the full-length protein, Notch is expressed at the cell surface as a heterodimeric receptor. Engagement by ligand results in a 2-step cleavage of the Notch heterodimer,...
