Major intrinsically disordered NOTCH2-binding receptor 1-like is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MINAR2 gene. The MINAR2 protein binds to cholesterol, and in particular may be involved with cholesterol regulation in hair cells. It may also be involved in angiogenesis. The long-form protein name is a reference to its homolog: major intrinsically disordered Notch2-binding receptor 1.
