General annotation (Comments)

Function	Intercellular signal essential for a variety of patterning events during development. Binds to the patched (PTC) receptor, which functions in association with smoothened (SMO), to activate the transcription of target genes. Implicated in endochondral ossification: may regulate the balance between growth and ossification of the developing bones. Induces the expression of parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHRP).
Subcellular location	Indian hedgehog protein N-product: Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor; Extracellular side By similarity. Note: The N-terminal peptide remains associated with the cell surface By similarity. Indian hedgehog protein C-product: Secreted › extracellular space By similarity. Note: The C-terminal peptide diffuses from the cell By similarity.
Tissue specificity	In the embryo, detected in the developing gut, the growth zone of cartilage of developing long bones, epithelium and urogenital sinus. In the adult kidney, found in proximal convoluted and proximal straight tubule.
Developmental stage	Detected at 10 dpc in developing gut, at 14.5 days dpc in the cartilage primordium and in the developing urogenital sinus. Expression increases with gestional age in kidney and duodenum, becoming maximal in adulthood.
Post-translational modification	The C-terminal domain displays an autoproteolysis activity and a cholesterol transferase activity. Both activities result in the cleavage of the full-length protein and covalent attachment of a cholesterol moiety to the C-terminal of the newly generated N-terminal fragment (N-product). The N-product is the active species in both local and long-range signaling, whereas the C-product has no signaling activity By similarity. Cholesterylation is required for N-product targeting to lipid rafts and multimerization By similarity. N-palmitoylation is required for N-product multimerization and full activity By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the hedgehog family.
