Background: DNER (Delta-notch-like EGF-related receptor), also known as Delta-notch-like EGF repeat-containing transmembrane protein, is a neuron-specific, atypical Notch ligand expressed in dendrites and cell bodies of neurons throughout the central nervous system. DNER contains ten extracellular EGF-like domains that are highly homologous to those of the Notch ligand, Delta. In the cerebellum, DNER is predominantly expressed in Purkinje cells. DNER mediates neuron-glia interaction during astrocytogenesis through a direct interaction with Notch 1 at Purkinje cell/Bergmann glia contacts. This interaction activates a Deltex-dependent Notch signaling pathway in Bergmann glia and may regulate Bergmann glial morphogenesis. DNER is crucial for the functional and morphological maturation of Bergmann glia. DNER-knockout mice are characterized by motor discoordination and cerebellum retardation in morphogenesis.
