Recombinant human Sonic Hedgehog/Shh protein
SHH, also known as Sonic hedgehog protein, is one of three proteins in the mammalian signaling pathway family called hedgehog. It plays a key role in regulating vertebrate organogenesis, such as in the growth of digits on limbs and organization of the brain. It controls cell division of adult stem cells and has been implicated in development of some cancers. Recombinant human SHH protein, fused to His-tag at C-terminus was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
