CCL2

Official Full Name
chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2

Background
This gene is one of several cytokine genes clustered on the q-arm of chromosome 17. Chemokines are a superfamily of secreted proteins involved in immunoregulatory and inflammatory processes. The superfamily is divided into four subfamilies based on the arrangement of N-terminal cysteine residues of the mature peptide. This chemokine is a member of the CC subfamily which is characterized by two adjacent cysteine residues. This cytokine displays chemotactic activity for monocytes and basophils but not for neutrophils or eosinophils. It has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diseases characterized by monocytic infiltrates, like psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis and atherosclerosis. It binds to chemokine receptors CCR2 and CCR4.

CCL2 has several biochemical functions, for example, CCR2 chemokine receptor binding, chemokine activity, heparin binding. Some of the functions are cooperated with other proteins, some of the functions could acted by CCL2 itself. We selected most functions CCL2 had, and list some proteins which have the same functions with CCL2. You can find most of the proteins on our site.
