Expressed in E. coli, this product boasts remarkable purity, greater than 98% as determined by both SDS-PAGE and HPLC. With endotoxin levels under 1.0 EU/µg, as assessed by the LAL method, this protein ensures minimal interference in experimental setups. Fully biologically active when compared to the standard, SHH's ED₅₀ is established by its ability to induce alkaline phosphatase production in murine C3H/10T1/2 cells at less than 1 µg/mL, yielding a specific activity of ＞ 1.0 × 103 IU/mg. The product is supplied as a lyophilized powder for ease of storage and application in various research contexts.

Target Background

Function

The C-terminal part of the sonic hedgehog protein precursor displays an autoproteolysis and a cholesterol transferase activity. Both activities result in the cleavage of the full-length protein into two parts (ShhN and ShhC) followed by the covalent attachment of a cholesterol moiety to the C-terminal of the newly generated ShhN. Both activities occur in the reticulum endoplasmic. Once cleaved, ShhC is degraded in the endoplasmic reticulum.; The dually lipidated sonic hedgehog protein N-product (ShhNp) is a morphogen which is essential for a variety of patterning events during development. Induces ventral cell fate in the neural tube and somites. Involved in the patterning of the anterior-posterior axis of the developing limb bud. Essential for axon guidance. Binds to the patched (PTCH1) receptor, which functions in association with smoothened (SMO), to activate the transcription of target genes. In the absence of SHH, PTCH1 represses the constitutive signaling activity of SMO.
