Hedgehog signaling pathway Hedgehog signaling pathway

Hedgehog signaling pathway • In vertebrates, 3 members of GLI transcription factor family exist: Hedgehog signaling pathway • In vertebrates, 3 members of GLI transcription factor family exist: • GLI 1 – primarily amplifies the transcriptional response. • GLI 2 – plays the important role for the activator function in response to Hh signaling. • GLI 3 – is the major repressor. • Patched (PTC) – Hh receptor localized around primary cilium. • Smoothened (SMO) – transmembrane protein constitutively inhibited by PTC. Once Hh ligands bind PTC, SMO is released and activates GLI transcription factors.
