CCR2

The protein encoded by this gene is a receptor for monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, a chemokine which specifically mediates monocyte chemotaxis. Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 is involved in monocyte infiltration in inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis as well as in the inflammatory response against tumors. The encoded protein mediates agonist-dependent calcium mobilization and inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. This protein can also be a coreceptor with CD4 for HIV-1 infection. This gene is located in the chemokine receptor gene cluster region of chromosome 3.
CCR2
Protein class

CD markers, G-protein coupled receptors, Human disease related genes

Predicted location

Membrane

Single cell type specificity

Cell type enhanced (Kupffer cells, dendritic cells, monocytes, Plasma cells, Macrophages)

Immune cell specificity

Immune cell enhanced (basophil)

Cell line specificity

Cell line enhanced (Karpas-707, THP-1, U-266/70, U-266/84)

Interaction

Interacts with ARRB1 (PubMed:9501202). Interacts (via extracellular N-terminal region) with beta-defensin DEFB106A/DEFB106B; this interaction may preferentially require specific tyrosine sulfation on CCR2 (PubMed:23938203). Interacts with NUP85; the interaction is required for CCR2 clusters formation on the cell membrane and CCR2 signaling (PubMed:15995708, 25283965). (Microbial infection) Binds to HIV-1 Tat.

Molecular function

G-protein coupled receptor, Receptor, Transducer
