Regulates the Notch signalling pathway, acting predominantly as a positive regulator but functioning as a context-dependent negative regulator in specific developmental or cellular settings. Mediates the antineural activity of Notch signalling, likely by inhibiting transcriptional activation mediated by MATCH1. Negatively regulates Notch signalling by controlling the activity of PIP4K2C, a lipid kinase that promotes recycling of Notch receptors from RAB4A-positive endosomes to the cell surface. Participates in several developmental and immune processes, including neurogenesis, lymphogenesis, and myogenesis. Influences lymphocyte differentiation by promoting B-cell development at the expense of T-cell development, suggesting functional antagonism of NOTCH1 in this context.
