GRK2 kinases in the primary cilium initiate SMOOTHENED-PKA signaling in the Hedgehog cascade.

During Hedgehog (Hh) signal transduction in development and disease, the atypical G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) SMOOTHENED (SMO) communicates with GLI transcription factors by binding the protein kinase A catalytic subunit (PKA-C) and physically blocking its enzymatic activity. Here, we show tha...
