The major negative regulator of the sonic hedgehog/*patched signalling pathway in vertebrates (suppressor of fused). The human gene has 40% homology with the Drosophila gene and the product (484 aa) inhibits the transcriptional activity of gli-1 (glioma-associated oncogene-1) and osteogenic differentiation in response to sonic hedgehog signalling.
