Human GRO alpha, GRO beta (MIP-2 alpha ), and GRO gamma (MIP-2 beta ) are products of three distinct, non-allelic human genes. GRO beta and GRO gamma share 90% and 86% amino acid sequence homology, respectively, with GRO alpha. All three human GROs are members of the alpha (C-X-C) subfamily of chemokines and are thought […]

CXCL3, also known as DCIP1 in mouse, CINC2 in rat, and GROγ in humans, is belonging to the CXC chemokine family. The amino acid sequence of mouse CXCL3 is 57 % identical to human CXCL3. In rat, CINC-2 has two isoforms, known as CXCL3α/CINC-2α and CXCL3β/CINC-2β. CXCL3 plays a role in inflammation and exert its […]

Rat CXCL2, also named CINC-3, is belonging to the CXC chemokine family. The protein sequence of mouse CXCL2 shows approximately 63% identity to that of mouse KC, another mouse alpha chemokine whose expression is induced by PDGF. The amino acid sequence of mouse CXCL2 is 60 % identical to human CXCL2. This chemokine is secreted […]

CXCL2, also named MIP-2, is belonging to the CXC chemokine family. The protein sequence of mouse CXCL2 shows approximately 63% identity to that of mouse KC, another mouse alpha chemokine whose expression is induced by PDGF. The amino acid sequence of mouse CXCL2 is 60 % identical to human CXCL2. This chemokine is secreted from […]

All three isoforms of GRO are CXC chemokines that can signal through the CXCR1 or CXCR2 receptors. The GRO proteins chemoattract and activate neutrophils and basophils. Recombinant Human GRO-β is a 7.9 kDa protein consisting of 73 amino acids, including the ‘ELR’ motif common to the CXC chemokine family that binds to CXCR1 or CXCR2.

CXCL1, also known as KC, is belonging to the CXC chemokine family. It is encoded by the GRO gene now designated CXCL1. Mature mouse CXCL1 shares 64% and 92% aa sequence identity with human and rat CXCL1, respectively. The CXC chemokine, CXCL1 (melanoma growth-stimulatory activity/growth-regulated protein alpha), plays a major role in inflammation, angiogenesis, tumorigenesis, […]

Rat CXCL1, also known as CINC-1, is belonging to the CXC chemokine family. It is encoded by the GRO gene now designated CXCL1. Mature mouse CXCL1 shares 64% and 92% aa sequence identity with human and rat CXCL1, respectively. The CXC chemokine, CXCL1 (melanoma growth-stimulatory activity/growth-regulated protein alpha), plays a major role in inflammation, angiogenesis, […]

CXCL1, also known as KC, GRO alpha, and CINC-1, is an approximately 8 kDa proinflammatory chemokine that plays a key role in neutrophil migration and activation. Mature human CXCL1 shares 64% and 67% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat CXCL1, respectively. It is produced by many cell types in inflammatory sites and during chronic […]

MEC is a secreted CC chemokine expressed primarily by epithelial cells of the bronchioles, salivary gland, mammary gland and colon. MEC signals through the CCR10 receptor, and chemoattracts resting CD4, CD8 T-cells and eosinophils. MEC contains six cysteines, including the four highly conserved cysteine residues present in CC chemokines. Recombinant Murine MEC is a 12.6 […]

CCL28 (CC chemokine ligand 28)，as know as mucosae-associated epithelial chemokine (MEC), is a novel CC chemokine. Among CC chemokines, CCL28 shares the most homology with CCL27/CTACK. The CCL28 gene has been mapped to the distal region of chromosome 13. CCL28 is produced by epithelial cells of diverse tissues including normal and pathological colon, salivary gland, […]
