Transducing the Hedgehog Signal
ates Ptc from Smo (Figure 1B) is also generally enter-Daniel Kalderon* tained (Chen and Struhl, 1996) because it is countered Department of Biological Sciences only by a single observation of Ptc-mediated binding of Columbia University Hh to Smo in tissue culture cells that expressed high New York, New York 10027 levels of both vertebrate Ptc and Smo (Stone et al., 1996). Some new data support ...
متن کاملTransducing Hedgehog: the story so far.
The secreted proteins of the Hedgehog family have been implicated in many different processes in vertebrate development including cartilage differentiation, myotome and sclerotome specification, hair follicle development, limb morphogenesis and the specification of different neuronal cell types. In addition, the aberrant activation of the Hedgehog pathway has been identified as the likely cause...
متن کاملSignal transducing membrane complexes of photoreceptor outer segments
Signal transduction in outer segments of vertebrate photoreceptors is mediated by a series of reactions among multiple polypeptides that form protein-protein complexes within or on the surface of the disk and plasma membranes. The individual components in the activation reactions include the photon receptor rhodopsin and the products of its absorption of light, the three subunits of the G prote...
متن کاملSugar transport across the hepatocyte plasma membrane.
Physiologically D-glucose transport across the hepatocyte plasma membrane differs from that in most other cells. Most cells in the body extract glucose from the blood as a source of energy or carbon. The liver on the other hand responds to its environment and acts as a 'glucostat'. As the level of glucose in the blood rises, i.e. during feeding, the liver must take it up and store it as glycoge...
متن کاملThe signal transducing photoreceptors of plants.
Light signals are amongst the most important environmental cues regulating plant development. In addition to light quantity, plants measure the quality, direction and periodicity of incident light and use the information to optimise growth and development to the prevailing environmental conditions. Red and far-red wavelengths are perceived by the photoreversible phytochrome family of photorecep...
