(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6375
Official gene symbolXCL1
Full namechemokine (C motif) ligand 1
Aliases,ATAC,LPTN,LTN,SCM-1,SCM-1a,SCM1,SCYC1,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the chemokine superfamily. Chemokines function in inflammatory and immunological responses, inducing leukocyte migration and activation. The encoded protein is a member of the C-chemokine subfamily, retaining only two of four cysteines conserved in other chemokines, and is thought to be specifically chemotactic for T cells. This gene and a closely related family member are located on the long arm of chromosome 1. [provided by RefSeq]
