Function:Monokine with inflammatory and chemokinetic properties. Binds to CCR1, CCR4 and CCR5. One of the major HIV-suppressive factors produced by CD8+ T-cells. Recombinant MIP-1-alpha induces a dose-dependent inhibition of different strains of HIV-1, HIV-2, and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV).,induction:By TPA or PHA (TPA = 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13 acetate (tumor promoter); PHA = phytohemagglutinin (T-cell mitogen)).,online information:Macrophage inflammatory protein entry,PTM:N-terminal processed form LD78-alpha(4-69) is produced by proteolytic cleavage after secretion from HTLV1-transformed T-cells.,similarity:Belongs to the intercrine beta (chemokine CC) family.,subunit:Self-associates. Also heterodimer of MIP-1-alpha(4-69) and MIP-1-beta(3-69).,
