Related Product Information for CCL2 active protein
Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) (CCL2) is produced by many cell types at sites of inflammation. It regulates chemotaxis and transendothielial migration of monocytes, as well as memory T cells and natural killer cells by interacting with their membrane surface receptor CCR2. MCP-1 has also been implicated in a number of disease states, such as rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis, autoimmune diseases, tumor progression, and HIV infection.

NCBI Description

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.

Uniprot Description

CCL2: Chemotactic factor that attracts monocytes and basophils but not neutrophils or eosinophils. Augments monocyte anti-tumor activity. Has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diseases characterized by monocytic infiltrates, like psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis or atherosclerosis. May be involved in the recruitment of monocytes into the arterial wall during the disease process of atherosclerosis. Monomer or homodimer; in equilibrium. Binds to CCR2 and CCR4. Is tethered on endothelial cells by glycosaminoglycan (GAG) side chains of proteoglycans. Belongs to the intercrine beta (chemokine CC) family.

Product Notes

The CCL2 ccl2 (Catalog #AAA444014) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli derived and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is 24-99. The amino acid sequence is listed below: QPDAINAPVT CCYNFTNRKI SVQRLASYRR ITSSKCPKEA VIFKTIVAKE ICADPKQK WVQDSIDHLD KQTQTPKT. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "CCL2, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
