About Ihh

Summary

Enables patched binding activity. Involved in several processes, including heart looping; positive regulation of smoothened signaling pathway; and regulation of T cell differentiation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; chordate embryonic development; and positive regulation of biosynthetic process. Located in extracellular matrix. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; egg cylinder; genitourinary system; limb; and skeleton. Used to study Hirschsprung's disease; annular pancreas; and brachydactyly type A1. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acrocapitofemoral dysplasia; brachydactyly type A1; retinopathy of prematurity; and syndactyly type 1. Orthologous to human IHH (Indian Hedgehog signaling molecule). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
