Title: Numb: "Adapting" notch for endocytosis. Author: Jafar-Nejad H, Norga K, Bellen H. Journal: Dev Cell; 2002 Aug; 3(2):155-6. PubMed ID: 12194846. Abstract: During sensory organ precursor divisions in Drosophila, the numb gene product segregates asymmetrically into one of the two daughter cells, to which it confers a specific fate by inhibiting Notch signaling. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Berdnik et al. show that Numb recruits alpha-Adaptin and that this physical interaction plays a role in downregulating Notch, presumably by stimulating endocytosis of Notch.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
