Ccr5 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables C-C chemokine binding activity and C-C chemokine receptor activity. Involved in negative regulation of macrophage apoptotic process. Acts upstream of or within apoptotic process and defense response. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver and biliary system. Used to study Coronavirus infectious disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Kawasaki disease; West Nile fever; autoimmune disease (multiple); berylliosis; and sarcoidosis (multiple). Orthologous to human CCR5 (C-C motif chemokine receptor 5). [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 Ccr5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • G-protein coupled receptor
  • C-C chemokine receptor
  • Cholecystokinin A receptor, N-terminal
  • protein kinase binding
  • C-C chemokine binding
  • actin binding
  • 7 transmembrane receptor (rhodopsin family)
  • protein binding
  • identical protein binding
  • seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily
