NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a conserved protein that is distributed asymmetrically during cell division in the developing embryo. The encoded protein participates in cell fate decisions by interacting with the Notch receptor. Loss of function of this gene results in severe defects in neural development and loss of viability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]
Uniprot Description
NUMB: Plays a role in the process of neurogenesis. Required throughout embryonic neurogenesis to maintain neural progenitor cells, also called radial glial cells (RGCs), by allowing their daughter cells to choose progenitor over neuronal cell fate. Not required for the proliferation of neural progenitor cells before the onset of neurogenesis. Also involved postnatally in the subventricular zone (SVZ) neurogenesis by regulating SVZ neuroblasts survival and ependymal wall integrity. May also mediate local repair of brain ventricular wall damage. Interacts with CDH1 and TFAP2B. Interacts with EPS15, LNX and NOTCH1. May interact with DUOXA1. Interacts with RALBP1 in a complex also containing EPN1 and TFAP2A during interphase and mitosis. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
