Abstract excerpt
In mice, Gli2 and Gli3 are the transcription factors that mediate the initial Hedgehog (Hh) signaling. In the absence of Hh signaling, the majority of the full-length Gli3 protein undergoes proteolytic processing into a repressor, while only a small fraction of the full-length Gli2 protein is processed. Gli3 processing is dependent on phosphorylation of the first four of the six protein kinase A (PKA) sites at...
