Chemokines are a family of small chemotactic cytokines, or proteins secreted by cells. Chemokines share the same structure similarities such as small size, and the presence of four cysteine residues in conserved locations in order to form their 3-dimensional shape. Some of the chemokines are considered pro-inflammatory which can be induced to recruit cells of the immune system to a site of infection during an immune response, while others are considered homeostatic and are implied in controlling the migration of cells during normal processes of tissue maintenance and development. There are four members of the chemokine family: C-C kemokines, C kemokines, CXC kemokines and CX3C kemokines. The C-C kemokines have two cysteines nearby the amino terminus. There have been at least 27 distinct members of this subgroup reported for mammals, called C-C chemokine ligands-1 to 28. Chemokine ligand 15 (CCL15), also known as leukotactin-1, MIP5, MIP1 and HCC-2, is a small cytokine belonging to the C-C chemokine family. CCL15 is prevantly expressed in liver, small intestine, colon, and in certain leukocytes and macrophages of the lung. It is chemotactic for neutrophils, monocytes, and lymphocytes and elicits its effects by binding to cell surface chemokine receptors like CCR1 and CCR3.
Post-translational: The N-terminal is proteolytically cleaved by proteases associated with inflammatory responses. The processed forms CCL15(22-92), CCL15(25-92) and CCL15(29-92) exhibit increase in CCR1-mediated signaling and chemotaxis assays in vitro.

Recombinant Human CCL15/MIP-5 Protein (rp183663) - Protein Bioactivity
Determined by its ability to chemoattract human T lymphocytes using a concentration range with 1.0-10.0 ng/mL.
Recombinant Human CCL15/MIP-5 Protein (rp183663) - SDS-PAGE
3 μg/lane of Recombinant Human CCL15/MIP-5 Protein was resolved with SDS-PAGE under reducing (R) and non-reducing (N) conditions and visualized by Coomassie® Blue staining, showing the bands at 8.0 kDa under reducing conditions and 8.0 & 15.5 kDa under non-reducing conditions.
The observation of protein as both dimers and monomers under non-reducing (NR) conditions suggests that a portion of the protein forms dimers. This dimerization may be mediated by (or stabilized by) disulfide bonds (Uniport: Q16663).
