The C-C chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) is a key player in HIV infection due to its major involvement in the infection process. Investigations into the role of the CCR5 coreceptor first focused on its binding to the virus and the molecular ...

CC chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) is a seven-transmembrane, G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) which regulates trafficking and effector functions of memory/effector T-lymphocytes, macrophages, and immature dendritic cells.

2024年12月24日 · CCR5 (C-C Motif Chemokine Receptor 5) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with CCR5 include West Nile Virus and Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus 22. Among its related pathways are Class A/1 (Rhodopsin-like receptors) and HIV Life Cycle.

CCR5 expression is regulated at three levels: (1) genetic factors (reviewed in Section 8); (2) factors involved in activation, signaling and trafficking of the receptor including desensitization (the receptor stops responding to stimulus), internalization (receptors are removed from the cell surface after stimulus and move to intracellular ...

We discuss the current knowledge concerning the biology of CXCR4 and CCR5 and their roles in HIV-1 infection. Important research findings reported in the last 2 years have advanced our knowledge in the field of HIV coreceptors and pathogenesis. ...

2021年7月6日 · Here we report three cryo-electron microscopy structures of G i1 protein-coupled CCR5 in a ligand-free state and in complex with the chemokine MIP-1α or RANTES, as well as the crystal structure...

CCR5 is a chemokine receptor that is expressed in various immune system cells and tissues. It is known for its role as a co-receptor for HIV-1 and mutations in the CCR5 gene can confer resistance or delay progression of HIV-1 disease.

2025年1月10日 · CCR5, a chemokine receptor on white blood cells, is significant in the immune system and HIV infection. Understanding CCR5’s roles offers insights into immune response mechanisms and potential HIV therapies.

2023年12月20日 · The Ccr5 gene encodes a protein called CCR5, which is a co-receptor for the HIV virus. In individuals who carry a mutation in this gene, known as the CCR5 delta 32 mutation, the CCR5 protein is absent or non-functional, thereby providing resistance against HIV infection.

2019年2月21日 · We tested a newly described molecular memory system, CCR5 signaling, for its role in recovery after stroke and traumatic brain injury (TBI). CCR5 is uniquely expressed in cortical neurons after stroke.
