Ccr3 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable C-C chemokine binding activity and C-C chemokine receptor activity. Involved in ERK1 and ERK2 cascade; angioblast cell migration; and leukocyte chemotaxis. Located in endosome and extracellular space. Used to study asthma and myocardial infarction. Biomarker of rhinitis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma; ovary epithelial cancer; and rhinitis. Orthologous to human CCR3 (C-C motif chemokine receptor 3).

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 rat Ccr3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
