A Structural Mechanism for Noncanonical GPCRSignal Transduction in the Hedgehog Pathway

William Paul Steiner, Nathan Iverson, G Liu…·Benjamin R. Myers

The paper reveals how phosphorylation of SMO in the Hedgehog pathway stabilizes a conformation that inhibits PKA-C, providing a structural mechanism for noncanonical GPCR signaling.
