Target Details for CCR5

Target: CCR5 (Chemokine (C-C Motif) Receptor 5 (CCR5))

Alternative Name: CD195 / CCR5

Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and related virus require coreceptors, in addition to CD4, to infect target cells. Some G protein-coupled receptors including CCR5, CXCR4, CCR3, CCR2b and CCR8 in the chemokine receptor family, and four new human molecules GPR15, STRL33, GPR1 and V28 were recently identified as HIV coreceptors1,2. Among them, CCR5 (CC-CKR-5) is a principal coreceptor for macrophage- and dual-tropic HIV-1 strains fusion and entry of human white blood cells3,4. CCR5 is required for the infection by HIV-1, HIV-2, and SIV1,2. The b-chemokines RANTES, MIP-1a and MIP-1b are the ligands for CCR5 and prevent infection by M-tropic HIV-13-5. CXC5 associates with the surface CD4-gp120 of HIV complex and leads to membrane fusion and virus entry of target cells6,7. The amino-terminal domain and the extracellular loops of CCR5 serve as HIV biding sites8. CCR5 messenger RNA is expressed in lymphoid organs and monocytes.Synonyms: C-C CKR-5, C-C chemokine receptor type 5, CC-CKR-5, CCR-5, CHEMR13, CMKBR5, HIV-1 fusion coreceptor
