MCP-3Background :
MARC, a member of the beta subfamily of chemokines, was initially identified as a transcript that is induced in a mouse mast cell line after Fc epsilon RI triggering by IgE plus antigen. Sequence comparisons suggest that MARC may be the mouse homologue of the human MCP-3 gene. Mouse MARC/MCP-3 expression has also been detected during murine experimental allergic encephalomyelitis in the spinal cord, and in LPS-stimulated murine WEHI -3 cells and Swiss 3T3 cells where MARC expression is glucocorticoid-attenuated. Except for one amino acid subsititution, mouse MARC is identical to mouse FIC, the product of a growth factor?activated gene. The mouse MARC cDNA encodes a 97 amino acid residue precursor protein with a 23 amino acid residue signal peptide that is cleaved to yield a 74 amino acid residue mature protein. Mouse CCR2, a mouse chemokine receptor, has been shown to bind JE/MCP-1 with high affinity and MARC/MCP-3 with lower affinity. The E. coli-expressed mouse MARC/MCP-3 produced at R&D Systems has been shown to be a monocyte and T-lymphocyte chemoattractant.RELATED PRODUCTS
