Ccl3 - C-C motif chemokine ligand 3

Enables chemokine activity. Involved in several processes, including neutrophil chemotaxis; positive regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration; and positive regulation of osteoclast differentiation. Predicted to be located in cytosol and extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Biomarker of several diseases, including Chagas disease; anterior uveitis; nephritis (multiple); renal fibrosis; and status epilepticus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in human immunodeficiency virus infectious disease. Orthologous to several human genes including CCL3 (C-C motif chemokine ligand 3).
