abbr. twhh. This zebrafish ortholog of the Drosophila melanogaster hedgehog gene is phylogenetically related to vertebrate Sonic hedgehog.
Tiggywinkle hedgehog is expressed in ganglion cells and in retinal pigment epithelium cells and is inbvolved in patterning of the fish retina (Neumann and Nuesslein-Volhard, 2000; Stenkamp et al, 2000).
