The Golgi microtubule-associated protein of 210kDa (GMAP-210) has been shown to play a role in the assembly and maintenance of the Golgi apparatus in mammalian tissue culture cells. To develop a genetic model to study the function of GMAP-210 in vivo, we identified its closest relative in Drosophila melanogaster, dGMAP. We show that the dGMAP...

Hedgehog (Hh) signaling is critical for many developmental processes and for the genesis of diverse cancers. Hh signaling comprises a series of negative regulatory steps, from Hh reception to gene transcription output. We previously showed that stability of antagonistic regulatory proteins, including the coreceptor Smoothened (Smo), the...
