ID:CCL28_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=C-C motif chemokine 28; AltName: Full=Mucosae-associated epithelial chemokine; Short=MEC; AltName: Full=Protein CCK1; AltName: Full=Small-inducible cytokine A28; Flags: Precursor; FUNCTION: Chemotactic activity for resting CD4, CD8 T-cells and eosinophils. Binds to CCR3 and CCR10 and induces calcium mobilization in a dose-dependent manner. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Preferentially expressed by epithelial cells of diverse tissues including normal and pathological colon, salivary gland, mammary gland, trachea and rectum. Also found in prostate, spleen, thyroid, psoriasis skin and in lower levels in peripheral blood leukocytes, small intestine, Peyer patches, stomach and normal skin. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the intercrine beta (chemokine CC) family. WEB RESOURCE: Name=Wikipedia; Note=CCL28 entry; URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CCL28";
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
