This antibody is specific for human MCP-1 protein. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with MCP-1 from human sources based on 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Based on 98 to 100% homology, there is a chance of cross-reactivity to MCP-1 from chimpanzee, orangutan, macaque, and baboon. Cross-reactivity with MCP-1 from other sources has not been determined.
This gene is one of several cytokine genes clustered on the q-arm of chromosome 17. Cytokines are a family of secreted proteins involved in immunoregulatory and inflammatory processes. The protein encoded by this gene is structurally related to the CXC subfamily of cytokines. Members of this subfamily are characterized by two cysteines separated by a single amino acid. 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.
