CCL8
geneOn this page
Also known as MCP-2HC14
Summary
CCL8 (C-C motif chemokine ligand 8, HGNC:10635) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 17q12, encoding C-C motif chemokine 8 (P80075). Chemotactic factor that attracts monocytes, lymphocytes, basophils and eosinophils.
This antimicrobial gene is one of several chemokine genes clustered on the q-arm of chromosome 17. Chemokines form a superfamily of secreted proteins involved in immunoregulatory and inflammatory processes. The superfamily is divided into four subfamilies based on the arrangement of N-terminal cysteine residues of the mature peptide. This chemokine is a member of the CC subfamily which is characterized by two adjacent cysteine residues. This cytokine displays chemotactic activity for monocytes, lymphocytes, basophils and eosinophils. By recruiting leukocytes to sites of inflammation this cytokine may contribute to tumor-associated leukocyte infiltration and to the antiviral state against HIV infection.

C-C motif chemokine 8 — P80075 (reviewed: P80075)
Alternative names: HC14, Monocyte chemoattractant protein 2, Monocyte chemotactic protein 2, Small-inducible cytokine A8
All UniProt accessions (1): P80075
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Chemotactic factor that attracts monocytes, lymphocytes, basophils and eosinophils. May play a role in neoplasia and inflammatory host responses. This protein can bind heparin. The processed form MCP-2(6-76) does not show monocyte chemotactic activity, but inhibits the chemotactic effect most predominantly of CCL7, and also of CCL2 and CCL5 and CCL8.
Subunit / interactions. Monomer or homodimer; in equilibrium.
Subcellular location. Secreted.
Tissue specificity. Highest expression found in the small intestine and peripheral blood cells. Intermediate levels seen in the heart, placenta, lung, skeletal muscle, thymus, colon, ovary, spinal cord and pancreas. Low levels seen in the brain, liver, spleen and prostate.
Post-translational modifications. N-terminal processed form MCP-2(6-76) is produced by proteolytic cleavage after secretion from peripheral blood monocytes.
Induction. By IFNG/IFN-gamma, mitogens and IL1/interleukin-1.
Similarity. Belongs to the intercrine beta (chemokine CC) family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 14 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
