CD192 rabbit polyclonal, anti-human, mouse, rat

Backgroud: This gene encodes two isoforms of a receptor for monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, a chemokine which specifically mediates monocyte chemotaxis. Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 is involved in monocyte infiltration in inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis as well as in the inflammatory response against tumors. The receptors encoded by this gene mediate agonist-dependent calcium mobilization and inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. This gene is located in the chemokine receptor gene cluster region. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants are expressed by the gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009],function:Receptor for the MCP-1, MCP-3 and MCP-4 chemokines. Transduces a signal by increasing the intracellular calcium ions level. Alternative coreceptor with CD4 for HIV-1 infection.,online information:CC chemokine receptors entry,polymorphism:Variations in CCR2 are associated with relative resistance to immunodeficiency virus type 1 (resistance to HIV-1) [MIM:609423].,PTM:N-glycosylated.,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.,subunit:Binds to HIV-1 Tat.,
