A Hedgehog activity gradient contributes to AP axial patterning of the Drosophila wing
Abstract
The secreted protein Hedgehog (Hh) transmits a signal from posterior to anterior cells that is essential for limb development in insects and vertebrates. In Drosophila, Hh has been thought to act primarily to induce localized expression of Decapentaplegic and Wingless which in turn relay patterning cues at long range. We report here that Hh plays an additional role in patterning the wing. By replacing endogenous Hh activity with that of a membranetethered form of Hh, we show that Hh acts directly to pattern the central region of the wing, in addition to its role as an inducer of Dpp. Comparing the biological activities of secreted and membrane-tethered Hh provides evidence that Hh forms a local concentration gradient and functions as a concentration-dependent morphogen in the fly wing.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
