Abstract excerpt
The seven-transmembrane protein Smoothened (Smo) acts as a signal transducer in the Hedgehog (Hh) pathway that mediates many key developmental processes. In Drosophila, Hh-induced phosphorylation promotes Smo cell-surface accumulation and signaling activity; however, the mechanisms controlling Smo phosphorylation and cell-surface accumulation are still unknown. The intracellular signaling complex containing Fused...
