Gene Information

mouse ... CCL2(20296)

General description

The monocyte chemoattractant proteins (MCPs) belong to the C-C chemokine family, and signal through C-C motif chemokine receptor-2 (CCR2) and, with the exception of MCP-1 or chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2) , other CCR receptors. The MCP family cross reacts across species. The gene encoding CCL2 is localized on mouse chromosome 11. Recombinant murine JE is a 13.8kDa protein containing 125 amino acid residues including the four highly conserved cysteine residues present in the CC chemokines.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The monocyte chemoattractant proteins (MCPs) chemo attract and activate monocytes, activated T cells, basophils, natural killer (NK) cells and immature dendritic cells. It has a role in the survival and proliferation of microglia. Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2) has been shown to activate GTPases like cell division control protein 42 (CDC42) and Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1).

Reconstitution

Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.
