CRC 1348 A08 - Molecular parameters for the dynamic assembly of Hedgehog signaling platforms

Basic data for this project

Type of projectSubproject in DFG-joint project hosted at University of Münster
Duration at the University of Münster01/01/2018 - 31/12/2021 | 1st Funding period

Description

This project studies how the sterol-sensing domain (SSD)-containing membrane protein Disp aids Hedgehog (Hh) transport, sorting, or assembly into signaling hubs on the cell surface. We will determine subcellular sites of Disp activity and its possible direct interaction with authentic Hh by using clickable chemical reporters and proximity ligation in conjunction with high-resolution microscopy.
