Signal transduction of the GPCR Smoothened: a key protein in Hedgehog-regulated morphogenesis and oncogenesis
The Hedgehog signalling pathway is crucial for embryonic development and tissue homeostasis. Misregulation can result in severe developmental defects or oncogenesis, with an estimated 25% of all cancer deaths exhibiting improper Hedgehog signalling. The G-protein coupled receptor Smoothened plays a...
