Notch is synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum as an inactive form which is proteolytically cleaved by a furin-like convertase (S1 cleavage) 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 (S2 cleavage) 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 (S3 cleavage) to release the intracellular domain (NICD) from the membrane.

Source Antibody:human
Grade:Serum
Purity:Serum
Form:Supplied as liquid in PBS, 0.09% sodium azide. No stabilizing proteins added.
Specificity:Recognizes human NOTCH 1. Species Crossreactivity: mouse. Only the cleaved intracellular (activated) form (NICD) is detected. Species sequence homology: rat NOTCH 1-100%. The epitope is only exposed after gamma secretase cleavage and is not accessible in the uncleaved form. No reactivity is detected against mouse N2, N3 or N4.
