Description
CCR6, also termed CKRL3, encodes a 369-amino acid polypeptide with greatest similarity to the family of alpha-chemokine-binding receptors. Unlike most chemokine receptor genes, it is encoded by more than 1 exon. Weakly expressed as a 4-kb transcript in spleen, lymph nodes, peripheral blood lymphocytes and appendix, CCR6 gene is located at 6q27. As the receptor for MIP-3-alpha, its activation leads to phospholipase C-dependent intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization. Additionally, CCR6 are markedly upregulated in psoriasis.
Immunogen
A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human CCR6(358-374aa RQTSETADNDNASSFTM), different from the related rat and mouse sequences by two amino acids.
