Ccl6 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable CCR1 chemokine receptor binding activity; chemoattractant activity; and chemokine activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including antimicrobial humoral immune response mediated by antimicrobial peptide; cell chemotaxis; and chemokine-mediated signaling pathway. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; liver; and retina nuclear layer. Orthologous to human CCL15 (C-C motif chemokine ligand 15) and CCL23 (C-C motif chemokine ligand 23). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Ccl6 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
