| Scientific background: | Indian hedgehog, also known as IHH or HHG2 is a protein which in humans is encoded by the IHH gene. This gene encodes a member of the hedgehog family of secreted signaling molecules. IHH gene is mapped to 2q35. Hedgehog proteins are essential regulators of a variety of developmental processes including growth, patterning and morphogenesis. The encoded protein specifically plays a role in bone growth a differentiation. Mutations in this gene are the cause of brachydactyly type A1 which is characterized by shortening or malformation of the phalanges. Mutations in this gene are also the cause of acrocapitofemoral dysplasia. |
