Bioactivity | Recombinant Human XCL2/SCM-1 beta (Catalog # 8418-X2) chemoattracts BaF3 mouse pro B cells transfected with human XCR1. The ED50 for this effect is 10-60 ng/mL. |
Human XCL2 (also known as Lymphotactin-2, SCYC2, and SCM-1 beta ) is a 10 kDa glycosylated protein in the C chemokine family (1-3). XCL1/Lymphotactin is a closely related chemokine that differs from XCL2 by only two amino acids (aa). Human XCL2 encodes a 114 amino acid aa precursor protein with a 21 aa predicted signal peptide. Members of the C chemokine family lack two (the 1st and 3rd) of the four invariant cysteine residues normally found in the CC and CXC chemokines. They also have an extended carboxy terminus (4). XCL1/Lymphotactin which is expressed in activated T cells and NK cells, while certain stimulatory conditions have been shown to induce XCL2 expression in macrophages (5-7). XCL2 and XCL1/Lymphotactin bind and activate the G protein-coupled receptor, XCR1. XCR1 is expressed on dendritic cells, T lymphocytes, and B lymphocytes (8-11). Binding of XCL2 to XCR1 initiates chemotaxic cell migration in dendritic cells as well as in T and B lymphocytes. XCR1 is also expressed on ovarian carcinoma cells and may contribute to cancer cell migration and proliferation in response to XCL2 or XCL1/Lymphotactin (12).
