The morphogen Sonic hedgehog inhibits its receptor Patched by a pincer grasp mechanism

Hedgehog (HH) ligands, classical morphogens that pattern embryonic tissues in all animals, are covalently coupled to two lipids-- a palmitoyl group at the N-terminus and a cholesteroyl group at the C-terminus. While the palmitoyl group binds and inactivates Patched 1 (PTCH1), the main receptor for H...
