Neurogenic locus notch homolog protein 3(Notch 3) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NOTCH3 gene. ^{[5] [6]}

Function

This gene encodes the third discovered human homologue of the Drosophila melanogaster type I membrane protein notch. In Drosophila, notch interaction with its cell-bound ligands (delta, serrate) establishes an intercellular signalling pathway that plays a key role in neural development. Homologues of the notch-ligands have also been identified in human, but precise interactions between these ligands and the human notch homologues remains to be determined.

Pathology

Micrograph showing CADASIL with a Notch 3 immunostain

Mutations in NOTCH3 have been identified as the underlying cause of cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL). ^[6] Mutations in NOTCH3 have also been identified in families with Alzheimer's disease. ^[7] Adult Notch3 knock-out mice show incomplete neuronal maturation in the spinal cord dorsal horn, resulting in permanently increased nociceptive sensitivity. ^[8] Mutations in NOTCH3 are associated to lateral meningocele syndrome. ^[9]

Pharmaceutical target

Notch3 is being investigated as a target for anti-cancer drugs, as it is overexpressed in several types of cancers. ^[10] Early clinical trials of Pfizer's PF-06650808, an anti-Notch3 antibody linked to a cytotoxic drug, showed efficacy against solid tumors. ^[11]

Mammalian evolution

An extensive cross-species investigation of the NOTCH3 gene has revealed unexpected natural diversity in a protein that is otherwise highly conserved among mammals. The analysis uncovered multiple cysteine-altering variants in jaguar ^[12] a rare splice isoform in humans shared with a small number of other species, and a regulatory-region deletion in Brandt’s bat. ^[13]
