Notch 2 Proteïne, Humaan, Recombinant (His)

NOTCH2 (Notch Receptor 2) is a Protein Coding gene. This gene encodes a member of the Notch family. Members of this Type 1 transmembrane protein family share structural characteristics and play a role in a variety of developmental processes by controlling cell fate decisions. Hajdu Cheney Syndrome (HCS) is a rare disease associated with mutations of NOTCH2 that lead to the translation of a truncated, presumably stable, NOTCH2 protein. NOTCH2 is down-regulated in colon cancer, and reduced expression is associated with a less differentiated, more aggressive phenotype, and reduced overall survival. NOTCH2 has also been shown to have pro-apoptotic and growth-suppressive effects in thyroid carcinoma, and carcinoid tumors. NOTCH2 acts as an oncogene that promotes bladder cancer growth and metastasis through EMT, cell-cycle progression, and maintenance of stemness.
