High impact information on DNER

  • In the developing cerebellum, DNER is highly expressed in Purkinje cell dendrites, which are tightly associated with radial fibers of Bergmann glia expressing Notch [1].
  • DNER protein is strongly expressed in several types of post-mitotic neurons, including cortical and hippocampal pyramidal neurons, cerebellar granule cells, and Purkinje cells [2].
  • DNER protein is localized to the dendritic plasma membrane and endosomes and is excluded from the axons, even when overexpressed [2].
  • The tyrosine-based sorting motif in the cytoplasmic domain is required for dendritic targeting of DNER [2].
  • In vitro studies demonstrated that DNER mediates Notch signaling by cell-cell interaction [3].
