title: Hedgehog signaling: an Arrestin connection?
abstract: Arrestins are best known for terminating signaling by G protein coupled receptors. New binding, localization and genetic studies suggest that Arrestins may also participate in the transduction of Hedgehog signals by the seven transmembrane domain protein, Smoothened.
