MOSMO

Protein smoothened UniProt accession Q99835

G protein-coupled receptor which associates with the patched protein (PTCH) to transduce hedgehog protein signaling. Binding of sonic hedgehog (SHH) to its receptor patched prevents inhibition of smoothened (SMO) by patched. When active, SMO binds to and sequesters protein kinase A catalytic subunit PRKACA at the cell membrane, preventing PRKACA-mediated phosphorylation of GLI transcription factors which releases the GLI proteins from PRKACA-mediated inhibition and allows for transcriptional activation of hedgehog pathway target genes (By similarity).

Required for the accumulation of KIF7, GLI2 and GLI3 in the cilia (PubMed:19592253). Interacts with DLG5 at the ciliary base to induce the accumulation of KIF7 and GLI2 at the ciliary tip for GLI2 activation (By similarity)

Homodimer (PubMed:23636324). Interacts (via C-terminus) with protein kinase A catalytic subunit PRKACA; interacts with free PRKACA subunits and the interaction leads to sequestration of PRKACA at the membrane, preventing PRKACA-mediated phosphorylation of GLI transcription factors (By similarity). Interacts with ARRB2 (By similarity).

Interacts with KIF7 (PubMed:19592253). Interacts with BBS5 and BBS7; the interactions are indicative for the association of SMO with the BBsome complex to facilitate ciliary localization of SMO (PubMed:22072986). Interacts with DLG5 and SDCBP (By similarity).

Interacts with DRC4 (PubMed:21659505)

The N-terminal extracellular domain mediates sterol-binding which is required for maximal activation of signaling (PubMed:24859340). Contains a second sterol-binding site within the seven-transmembrane pocket which is also required for activation (By similarity). The activating sterol is likely to be cholesterol (PubMed:35658032).

The extracellular site is required for SHH-induced activity while the site within the transmembrane pocket regulates basal signaling in the absence of SHH (PubMed:35658032)
