Recombinant Mouse CCL2/JE/MCP-1 Protein (Trx Tag)

Product Specifications

Background

Monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (CCL2/JE/MCP-1), also called CCL2, belongs to a group of CC chemokines located in chromosome 17q11.2. CCL2/JE/MCP-1 protein interacts with chemokine C-C motif receptor 2 (CCR2) to activate and recruit monocytes, macrophages, CD4+ T cells and immature dendritic cells to the site of infection. The presence of CCL2/JE/MCP-1 protein in an adequate concentration is important for granuloma formation and M. tuberculosis clearance.
