Rabbit Anti-CCL14/SCYL2/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
This gene, chemokine (SLCC motif) ligand 14, is one of several CC cytokine genes clustered on 17q11.2. The CC cytokines are secreted proteins characterized by two adjacent cysteines. The cytokine encoded by this gene induces changes in intracellular calcium concentration and enzyme release in monocytes. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Read-through transcripts are also expressed that include exons from the upstream cytokine gene, chemokine (SLCC motif) ligand 15, and are represented as GeneID: 348249. [provided by RefSeq].
Function:
Has weak activities on human monocytes and acts via receptors that also recognize MIP-1 alpha. It induced intracellular Ca(2+) changes and enzyme release, but no chemotaxis, at concentrations of 100-1,000 nM, and was inactive on T-lymphocytes, neutrophils, and eosinophil leukocytes. Enhances the proliferation of CD34 myeloid progenitor cells. The processed form HCSLC1(9-74) is a chemotactic factor that attracts monocytes eosinophils, and T-cells and is a ligand for CCR1, CCR3 and CCR5.
Subcellular Location:
Secreted.
Tissue Specificity:
Expressed constitutively in several normal tissues: spleen, liver, skeletal and heart muscle, gut, and bone marrow, present at high concentrations (1-80 nM) in plasma.
Post-translational modifications:
The N-terminal processed forms HCSLC1(3-74), HCSLC1(4-74) and HCSLC1(9-74) are produced in small amounts by proteolytic cleavage after secretion in blood.
HCSLC1(1-74), but not HCSLC1(3-74) and HCSLC1(4-74), is partially O-glycosylated; the O-linked glycan consists of one Gal-GalNAc disaccharide, further modified by two N-acetylneuraminic acids.
Similarity:
Belongs to the intercrine beta (chemokine CC) family.
