C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 2q22.1. The gene codes for a protein with seven transmembrane regions. The encoded protein is expressed on the surface of T-cells, B-cells, monocytes, neutrophils and dendritic cells.
Immunogen
CXCR4 antibody was raised against a peptide corresponding to amino acids near the amino terminus of human CXCR4.
Application
Anti-CXCR4 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blot analysis and indirect ELISA.[1]
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below. Western Blotting (1 paper)
Biochem/physiol Actions
C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) is specific for stromal cell-derived factor-1. It plays a vital role in regulation of immune response in various immune cell types. CXCR4 interacts with CD4 (cluster of differentiation 4) and permits human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) entry and infection in to the cells. Polymorphism in the gene is associated with the development of Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). In addition, mutation in the gene increases the risk of susceptibility to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs).

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) cause drug resistance in cancer due to its extensive drug efflux, DNA repair and self-renewal capability. ATP binding cassette subfamily G member 2 (ABCG2) efflux pump afford protection to CSCs in tumors, shielding them from the
The preferential accumulation of vascular smooth muscle cells (vSMCs) on arteries versus veins during early development is a well-described phenomenon, but the molecular pathways underlying this polarization are not well understood. In zebrafish, the cxcr4a receptor (mammalian CXCR4) and its

Gain‑of‑function (GOF) mutations in the TP53 gene lead to acquisition of new functions by the mutated tumor suppressor p53 protein. A number of the over‑represented 'hot spot' mutations, including the ones in codons 175, 248 or 273, convey GOF phenotypes.
