Nicastrin (NCSTN) is a gene that encodes a protein that cleaves integral membrane proteins, including Notch receptors and beta-amyloid precursor protein. Missense mutations, synonymous mutations, nonsense mutations, and frameshift mutations are observed in cancers such as stomach cancer, colon cancer, and urinary tract cancer.
