General annotation (Comments)

Function

Functions as a receptor for membrane-bound ligands Jagged1, Jagged2 and 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 and activates genes of the enhancer of split locus. Affects the implementation of differentiation, proliferation and apoptotic programs By similarity.

Subunit structure

Heterodimer of a C-terminal fragment N(TM) and an N-terminal fragment N(EC) which are probably linked by disulfide bonds By similarity. Interacts with MAML1, MAML2 and MAML3 which act as transcriptional coactivators for NOTCH2.

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.

Notch 2 intracellular domain: Nucleus. Note= Following proteolytical processing NICD is translocated to the nucleus.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in the brain, heart, kidney, lung, skeletal muscle and liver.

Post-translational modification

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) and 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 By similarity.

Phosphorylated By similarity.

Involvement in disease

Defects in NOTCH2 are the cause of Alagille syndrome type 2 (ALGS2) [MIM:610205]. Alagille syndrome is an autosomal dominant multisystem disorder defined clinically by hepatic bile duct paucity and cholestasis in association with cardiac, skeletal, and ophthalmologic manifestations. There are characteristic facial features and less frequent clinical involvement of the renal and vascular systems.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the NOTCH family.

Contains 6 ANK repeats.

Contains 35 EGF-like domains.

Contains 3 LNR (Lin/Notch) repeats.
