Visualizing the sonic hedgehog gradient in zebrafish embryos.
Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) is a lipid modified protein secreted by the notochord and the floor plate during vertebrate development. It acts as a graded morphogen, inducing the specification of distinct cell identities in the ventral neural tube in a concentration-dependent manner. To study the gradient fo...
