Official gene symbolACKR3
Full namechemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 7
Aliases,CMKOR1,CXC-R7,CXCR-7,CXCR7,GPR159,RDC-1,RDC1,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the G-protein coupled receptor family. Although this protein was earlier thought to be a receptor for vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), it is now considered to be an orphan receptor, in that its endogenous ligand has not been identified. The protein is also a coreceptor for human immunodeficiency viruses (HIV). Translocations involving this gene and HMGA2 on chromosome 12 have been observed in lipomas. [provided by RefSeq]
