Many other proteins that bind to Hedgehog in the extracellular matrix or on the cell surface have been identified. In light of these recent discoveries, we discuss how these factors control the stability, transport, reception, and availability of Hedgehog in modulating Hedgehog-mediated responses.}, keywords = {Animals, Embryonic Development, Hedgehog Proteins, Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans, Humans, Macromolecular Substances, Protein Binding, Protein Transport, Receptors, Cell Surface, Signal Transduction, Trans-Activators}, issn = {0092-8674}, doi = {10.1016/j.cell.2006.04.016}, author = {Wilson, Christopher W and Chuang, Pao-Tien} }
