C-C chemokine receptor type 5

UniProt P51681 Organism Homo sapiens Gene CCR5, CMKBR5

Also known as: CCR5, CMKBR5

Function

Receptor for a number of inflammatory CC-chemokines including CCL3/MIP-1-alpha, CCL4/MIP-1-beta and RANTES and subsequently transduces a signal by increasing the intracellular calcium ion level. May play a role in the control of granulocytic lineage proliferation or differentiation. Participates in T-lymphocyte migration to the infection site by acting as a chemotactic receptor.
