NICD1 is a protein that plays a key role in the Notch signaling pathway. It functions as the intracellular domain of the Notch receptor and is released upon Notch activation. NICD1 translocates to the nucleus and acts as a transcriptional regulator, modulating the expression of target genes involved in cell fate determination and differentiation.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
