CCR3
Description
The CCR3 (C-C motif chemokine receptor 3) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 3.
CCR3 may refer to the C-C chemokine receptor type 3, also known as the eosinophil eotaxin receptor.
CCR3 is a receptor for C-C type chemokines, binding and responding to several including CCL11, CCL26, CCL7, CCL13, RANTES(CCL5) and CCL15. It transduces signals by increasing intracellular calcium levels. It has also been identified as a possible functional receptor for NARS1.
CCR3 is also known as C C CKR3, CC-CKR-3, CD193, CKR 3, CKR3, CMKBR3.
