Human CXCL7/NAP-2 Recombinant Protein

Human Chemokine (C-X-C motif) Ligand 7 (CXCL7); also known as neutrophil activating peptide 2 (NAP-2); is a member of the CXC chemokines containing an ELR domain (Glu-Leu-Arg tripeptide motif). Similar to other ELR domain containing CXC chemokines; such as IL-8 and the GRO proteins; CXCL7 binds CXCR2; chemoattracts and activates neutrophils. CXCL7; Connective Tissue Activating Protein III (CTAPIII) and βthrombogulin (βTG); are proteolytically processed carboxylterminal fragments of platelet basic protein (PBP) which is found in the alphagranules of human platelets. Although CTAPIII; βTG; and PBP represent amino-terminal extended variants of NAP2 and possess the same CXC chemokine domains; these proteins do not exhibit CXCL7/NAP2 activity. CXCL7 induces cell migration through the G-protein-linked receptor CXCR-2.
