Synonyms

Description
CXCL12 is belonging to the CXC chemokine family. SDF_x005f_x005f_x005f_x005f_x005f_x005f_x005f_x001e_1 alpha and SDF1 beta cDNAs encode precursor proteins of 89 and 93 amino acid residues, respectively. SDF-1 is highly conserved between species, mouse CXCL12α shares approximately 93% amino acid sequence identity with human CXCL12α. CXCL12 is strongly chemotactic for T-lymphocytes, monocytes, but not neutrophils. Contrast to SDF-1β, SDF-1α is shorter by four amino acids at the C-terminal tail.
