NCIt definition : Human CCL5 wild-type allele is located within 17q11.2-q12 and is approximately 36
kb in length. This allele, which encodes C-C motif chemokine 5 protein, plays a role
in immune cell chemotaxis and histamine release.;
NCIt note : The cytokine encoded by CCL5 functions as a chemoattractant for blood monocytes, memory
T helper cells and eosinophils. Further, it causes histamine release from basophils
and activates eosinophils.;
