Abstract excerpt
cDNAs were isolated that represent transcripts of the Drosophila segment polarity gene, hedgehog (hh). Sequence analysis reveals a motif characteristic of a transmembrane domain, suggesting that the hh protein is membrane-associated. hh expression in epidermal cells is confined to the posterior compartments and coincides precisely with that of engrailed (en). Despite the similar patterns of expression in the...
