The Drosophila segment polarity gene hedgehog encodes a member of a family of secreted proteins that are involved in a variety of patterning processes, in both vertebrates and invertebrates. Some of these processes depend upon short-range or contact-dependent interactions, whereas others seem to involve long-range signalling. Two different models have been proposed to account for the execution of these contrasting processes by the same proteins: one postulates that Hedgehog acts exclusively over short distances, its long-range influences being effected through regulation of other signalling factors; the second postulates that different aspects of Hedgehog activity are mediated by distinct forms of the protein that are generated by autoproteolysis.
