Sonic hedgehog (SHH) is a member of a small group of hedgehog secreted proteins that are essential for development in both vertebrates and invertebrates. There are three mammalian hedgehog homologues, sonic, desert, and indian, that signal via the Patched-1 and Patched-2 receptors. SHH is a morphogen that is essential during vertebrate organogenesis and adult stem cell division.Activity Assay
Human SHH is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The activity is determined by the dose-dependent induction of alkaline prosphatase production by C3H/10T1/2 fibroblasts and it is typically 750 ng/ml.AA Sequence
