Fig. 5. Restricted diffusion of Shh can propagate a morphogen signal.
(A) Extracellular Shh concentration and (B) intracellular Gli1
concentration are shown at t=83 hours at various Shh diffusivities.
(C) The Gli1 protein interface position is shown at various
diffusivities at t=83 hours. Simulation initial conditions and
parameters are the same as those listed in
Fig. 2, except DShh
was varied.
