CC -!- FUNCTION: [Sonic hedgehog protein]: The C-terminal part of the sonic
CC hedgehog protein precursor displays an autoproteolysis and a
CC cholesterol transferase activity (By similarity). Both activities
CC result in the cleavage of the full-length protein into two parts (ShhN
CC and ShhC) followed by the covalent attachment of a cholesterol moiety
CC to the C-terminal of the newly generated ShhN (By similarity). Both
CC activities occur in the reticulum endoplasmic (By similarity). Once
CC cleaved, ShhC is degraded in the endoplasmic reticulum (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q15465, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62226,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q92008}.
CC -!- FUNCTION: [Sonic hedgehog protein A N-product]: The dually lipidated
CC sonic hedgehog protein N-product (ShhNp) is a morphogen which is
CC essential for a variety of patterning events during development (By
CC similarity). Involved in dorso-ventral patterning of the brain and in
CC early patterning of the developing eyes (By similarity). Binds to the
CC patched (PTCH1) receptor, which functions in association with
CC smoothened (SMO), to activate the transcription of target genes (By
CC similarity). In the absence of SHH, PTCH1 represses the constitutive
CC signaling activity of SMO (By similarity).

CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q92008}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: [Sonic hedgehog protein]:
CC Reaction=cholesterol + glycyl-L-cysteinyl-[protein] + H(+) = [protein]-
CC C-terminal glycyl cholesterol ester + N-terminal L-cysteinyl-
CC [protein]; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:59504, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:12707, Rhea:RHEA-

CC -!- SUBUNIT: [Sonic hedgehog protein A N-product]: Multimer.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q15465}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with HHATL/GUP1 which negatively regulates HHAT-
CC mediated palmitoylation of the SHH N-terminus (By similarity).
CC Interacts with BOC and CDON (By similarity). Interacts with HHIP (By
CC similarity). Interacts with DISP1 via its cholesterol anchor (By
CC similarity). Interacts with SCUBE2 (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q15465, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62226}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: [Sonic hedgehog protein]: Endoplasmic reticulum
CC membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q15465}. Golgi apparatus membrane
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q15465}. Note=Co-localizes with HHAT in the ER
CC and Golgi membrane. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q15465}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: [Sonic hedgehog protein A N-product]: Cell
CC membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62226}; Lipid-anchor
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62226}. Note=The dual-lipidated sonic hedgehog
CC protein N-product (ShhNp) is firmly tethered to the cell membrane where
CC it forms multimers (By similarity). Further solubilization and release
CC from the cell surface seem to be achieved through different mechanisms,
CC including the interaction with DISP1 and SCUBE2, movement by
CC lipoprotein particles, transport by cellular extensions called
CC cytonemes or by the proteolytic removal of both terminal lipidated
CC peptides. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62226}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: [Sonic hedgehog protein A N-product]: Binds calcium and zinc
CC ions; this stabilizes the protein fold and is essential for protein-
CC protein interactions mediated by this domain.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62226}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: [Sonic hedgehog protein A N-product]: The Cardin-Weintraub (CW)
CC motif is required for heparan sulfate binding of the solubilized ShhNp
CC (By similarity). The N-terminal palmitoylated peptide is cleaved at the
CC Heparan sulfate-binding Cardin-Weintraub (CW) motif site (By
CC similarity). The cleavage reduced the interactions with heparan
CC sulfate. The cleavage is enhanced by SCUBE2 (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62226}.
CC -!- PTM: [Sonic hedgehog protein]: The C-terminal domain displays an
CC autoproteolysis activity and a cholesterol transferase activity (By
CC similarity). Both activities result in the cleavage of the full-length
CC protein and covalent attachment of a cholesterol moiety to the C-
CC terminal of the newly generated N-terminal fragment (ShhN) (By
CC similarity). Cholesterylation is required for the sonic hedgehog
CC protein N-product targeting to lipid rafts and multimerization (By
CC similarity). ShhN is the active species in both local and long-range
CC signaling, whereas the C-product (ShhC) is degraded in the reticulum
CC endoplasmic (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62226,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q92008}.
CC -!- PTM: [Sonic hedgehog protein A N-product]: N-palmitoylation by HHAT of
CC ShhN is required for sonic hedgehog protein N-product multimerization
CC and full activity (By similarity). It is a prerequisite for the
CC membrane-proximal positioning and the subsequent shedding of this N-
CC terminal peptide (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62226}.
CC -!- PTM: [Sonic hedgehog protein A N-product]: The lipidated N- and C-
CC terminal peptides of ShhNp can be cleaved (shedding) (By similarity).
CC The N-terminal palmitoylated peptide is cleaved at the Cardin-Weintraub
CC (CW) motif site (By similarity). The cleavage reduced the interactions
CC with heparan sulfate (By similarity). The cleavage is enhanced by
CC SCUBE2 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62226}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the hedgehog family. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- CAUTION: The several steps and mechanisms that permit controlled Shh
CC dispersion and gradient formation remain controversial. The ShhNC C-
CC terminal domain displays an autoproteolysis activity and a cholesterol
CC transferase activity resulting in the cleavage and covalent attachment
CC of a cholesterol moiety to the C-terminal of the newly generated N-
CC terminal fragment (ShhN). The protein is further modified by covalent
CC addition of palmitate at the N-terminal of ShhN, resulting to the dual-
CC lipidated Shh (ShhNp). ShhNp is firmly tethered to the cell membrane
CC where it forms multimers. Further solubilization and release from the
CC cell surface seem to be achieved through different mechanisms,
CC including the interaction with DISP1 and SCUBE2, movement by
CC lipoprotein particles, transport by cellular extensions called
CC cytonemes or by proteolytic removal of both terminal lipidated
CC peptides. Once released, the fully processed Shh can signal within
CC embryonic tissues both at short and long-range.
