Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 4 is a protein which in human is encoded by the CCL4 gene. By analysis of somatic cell hybrids and by in situ hybridization, the gene was assigned to 17q21-q23. It is a CC chemokine with specificity for CCR5 receptors. It is a chemoattractant for natural killer cells, monocytes and a variety of other immune cells. CCL4 is a major HIV-suppressive factor produced by CD8+ T cells. Performing-low memory CD8+ T cells that normally synthesize CCL4. Based on functional analysis, one or more additional beta chemokine receptors that transduce CCL4 signals must also exist. MIP-1alpha and CCL4 have been shown to lack affinity for the erythrocyte surface chemokine receptor/Duffy antigen that binds many alpha as well as beta chemokines(11, 14).
