Xcl1 - X-C motif chemokine ligand 1

Predicted to enable CCR chemokine receptor binding activity; chemokine activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to cytokine stimulus; positive regulation of leukocyte migration; and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to act upstream of or within chemotaxis and release of sequestered calcium ion into cytosol. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Biomarker of anti-basement membrane glomerulonephritis. Orthologous to several human genes including XCL1 (X-C motif chemokine ligand 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
