Abstract excerpt
Recent work has shown that the majority of human acute T-cell lymphoblastic leukemias and lymphomas (T-ALL) have gain-of-function mutations in NOTCH1, a type I transmembrane receptor that normally signals through a gamma-secretase-dependent mechanism that relies on ligand-induced regulated intramembranous proteolysis. Cleavage by gamma-secretase releases the intracellular domain of NOTCH1 (ICN1), permitting it to...
