The crystal structure of Shh-N also contains a single sulphate molecule, shown in red and white, which interacts with arginine residues at the interface of two Shh-N molecules. Since Shh-N binds [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heparin heparin], this interaction is believed to comprise a heparin-binding region<ref name="Palm"/>.
