    • 2015 August 14, “A Comparison of Ci/Gli Activity as Regulated by Sufu in Drosophila and Mammalian Hedgehog Response”, in PLOS ONE[1], →DOI:
      We conclude that Fu binds to Su(fu) and to Cos2 through distinct regions in the extracatalytic domain, (aa361-390 and aa504-805, respectively), and that disruption of Fu kinase activity does not affect the ability of Fu to bind to Su(fu) and Cos2.
