Rabbit Anti-CCL4/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
This gene is one of several cytokine genes clustered on the q-arm of chromosome 17. Cytokines are a family of secreted proteins involved in immunoregulatory and inflammatory processes. This protein is similar to CCL4 which inhibits HIV entry by binding to the cellular receptor CCR5. The copy number of this gene varies among individuals; most individuals have 1-5 copies in the diploid genome, although rare individuals do not contain this gene at all. The human genome reference assembly contains two copies of this gene. This record represents the more centromeric gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
Function:
Monokine with inflammatory and chemokinetic properties. Binds to CCR5. One of the major HISLVsuppressive factors produced by CD8+ T-cells. Recombinant MIP-1-beta induces a dose-dependent inhibition of different strains of HISLV1, HISLV2, and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV). The processed form MIP-1-beta(3-69) retains the abilities to induce down-modulation of surface expression of the chemokine receptor CCR5 and to inhibit the CCR5-mediated entry of HISLV1 in T-cells. MIP-1-beta(3-69) is also a ligand for CCR1 and CCR2 isoform B.
Subunit:
Homodimer and heterodimer of MIP-1-alpha(4-69) and MIP-1-beta(3-69).
Subcellular Location:
Secreted.
Post-translational modifications:
N-terminal processed form MIP-1-beta(3-69) is produced by proteolytic cleavage after secretion from peripheral blood lymphocytes.
Similarity:
Belongs to the intercrine beta (chemokine CC) family.
