The DHH gene provides instructions for making a member of the hedgehog protein family. Hedgehog proteins are important for early development in many parts of the body. The protein produced from the DHH gene is believed to be involved in male-typical sex development and in the formation of the perineurium, the protective membrane around each bundle of fibers within a nerve.
