Abstract:
:Notch signaling has been implicated in a wide variety of processes from cell-fate decisions, tissue patterning and morphogenesis to human diseases and cancer. A model for Notch directly regulating gene expression has been proposed and at least two signaling pathways have been identified; however, the molecular mechanism(s) by which Notch signaling produces so many outcomes remains unclear.
