Multiple processing events generate the mature Shh signaling protein. Signal peptidase removes the N-terminal signal sequence. The autoprocessing domain mediates autocleavage and attachment of cholesterol to the C-terminus of the Shh signaling domain, while Hhat catalyzes attachment of palmitate via amide linkage to the N-terminus of the Shh signaling domain.
