Function
May participate in the recruitment of inflammatory cells by injured or infected tissue. GCP-2(1-78) and, more potent, GCP-2(9-78) attract neutrophils and are involved in neutrophil activation. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the intercrine alpha (chemokine CxC) family. -
Post-translational
modificationsGCP-2(1-78) and GCP-2(9-78) are produced by proteolytic cleavage after secretion from fibroblasts and epithelial cells. GCP-2(9-78) is the most prominent form. A number of additional N-terminal (processed between pos. 41 and 48) and C-terminal (processed between pos. 118 and 132) processed forms have been identified, probably also representing intermediate states. -
