Description

General description

Protein numb homolog (UniProt: P49757; also known as h-Numb, Protein S171) is encoded by the NUMB (also known as C14orf41) gene (Gene ID: 8650) in human. NUMB is an evolutionarily conserved endocytic protein that make the daughter cells different after asymmetric divisions by segregating to only one daughter. NUMB is a peripheral membrane protein present in cell and endosome membranes. It is required throughout embryonic neurogenesis to maintain neural progenitor cells by allowing their daughter cells to choose progenitor over neuronal cell fate. However, they are not required for the proliferation of neural progenitor cells before the onset of neurogenesis. It is also involved postnatally in the subventricular zone (SVZ) neurogenesis by regulating SVZ neuroblasts survival and ependymal wall integrity. NUMB is shown to interact with AP-2 and clathrin-coated pits via -adaptin protein. It undergoes phosphorylation at serine 276 and 295 by CAMK1, which decouples it from the recycling machinery and results in inhibition of its interaction with AP-2 and clathrin-mediated endocytosis. NUMB also functions as an oncosuppressor by inhibiting Notch signaling and stabilizing p53. This effect is dependent upon its interaction with Mdm2 that ubiquitinates p53 and commits it to proteasomal degradation. Nine isoforms of NUMB have been described that are produced by alternative splicing. (Ref.: Colaluca, IN., et al. (2018). J. Cell Biol. 217(2); 745-762; Tasoni, D., et al. (2015). J. Cell.
