Function
- receptor for a C-C type chemokine
- binds to MIP-1-alpha, MIP-1-delta, RANTES, & MCP-3 &, less efficiently, to MIP-1- beta or MCP-1
- upon ligand binding, transduces a signal by increasing intracellular Ca+2 level
- role in stem cell proliferation
Structure
belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family
Compartment
Expression
- widely expressed in different hematopoietic cells
