Neurogenic locus notch homolog protein 4 (NOTCH4)

Functions as a receptor for membrane-bound ligands Jagged1, Jagged2 and Delta1 to regulate cell-fate conclusion. Upon ligand activation through the released notch intracellular domain (NICD) it forms a transcriptional activator complex with RBPJ/RBPSUH and activates genes of the enhancer of split locus.

Affects the implementation of differentiation, proliferation and apoptotic programs. May regulate branching morphogenesis in the developing circulatory system (By similarity).
