Target Details for CXCR4

Target: CXCR4 (Chemokine (C-X-C Motif) Receptor 4 (CXCR4))

Alternative Name: CD184 / CXCR4

Background: The C-X-C or alpha chemokine family is characterized by a pair of cysteine residues separated by a single amino acid and primarily functions as chemoattractants for neutrophils. The C-X-C family includes IL-8, NAP-2, MSGA and stromal cell derived factor-1 or SDF-1. SDF-1 was originally described as a pre-B cell stimulatory factor, but has now been shown to function as a potent chemoattractant for T cells and monocytes but not neutrophils. Receptors for the C-X-C family are G protein coupled, seven pass transmembrane domain proteins which include IL-8RA, IL-8RB and fusin (variously referred to as LESTR or CXCR-4). Fusin is highly homologous to the IL-8 receptors, sharing 37 % sequence identity at the amino acid level. The IL-8 receptors bind to IL-8, NAP-2 and MSGA, while fusin binds to its cognate ligand, SDF-1. Fusin has been identified as the major coreceptor for T-tropic HIV-1 and SDF-1 has been shown to inhibit HIV-1 infection.Synonyms: C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4, CXC-R4, CXCR-4, FB22, Fusin, HM89, LCR1, LESTR, Leukocyte-derived seven transmembrane domain receptor, NPYRL, SDF1 receptor, Stromal cell-derived factor 1 receptor
