Query author contributions in Reactome
Reactome depends on collaboration between our curation team and outside experts to assemble and peer-review its pathway modules. The integration of ORCID within Reactome enables us to meet a key challenge with authoring, curating and reviewing biological information by incentivizing and crediting the external experts that contribute their expertise and time to the Reactome curation process. More information is available at ORCID and Reactome.
If you have an ORCID ID that is not listed on this page, please forward this information to us and we will update your Reactome pathway records.

| comment | FUNCTION G protein-coupled receptor that can bind a variety of chemokines, such as CCL1, CCL8, CCL16, CCL18 (PubMed:23999500, PubMed:35041514). Regulates monocyte and eosinophil chemotaxis. Undergoes internalization upon CCL18 binding, leading to induced migration and calcium flux of highly polarized Th2 cells (PubMed:23999500). In microglial cells, promotes phagocytosis with CCL18 through NF-kappa-B and Src signaling pathways (PubMed:35041514). Stimulation of the CCL1-CCR8 signaling axis protects the gut from acute intestinal damage (By similarity).FUNCTION (Microbial infection) Acts as a coreceptor for HIV-1 and HIV-2 viruses.FUNCTION (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for Kaposi virus protein vCCL1/K6 and thereby inhibits apoptosis in the targeted cells.SUBUNIT Interacts with GNAI1.SUBUNIT (Microbial infection) Interacts with Kaposi virus proteins vCCL1 and vCCL2.SUBCELLULAR LOCATION Expressed in unstimulated CD4(+) and CD8(+) T-cells and polymorphonuclear cells.SIMILARITY Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.CAUTION Was originally thought to be a receptor for SCYA3 and SCYA17.ONLINE INFORMATION CC chemokine receptors entry |
