Isolation of novel GRO genes and a phylogenetic analysis of the CXC chemokine subfamily in mammals
1 Feb 1999
Abstract excerpt
Approximately 15 different alpha, or CXC, chemokines have thus far been isolated from 11 species of mammals. Among the best studied chemokines are the 12 human proteins that are encoded by 11 paralogous genes. In order to better understand the evolution and function of this group of genes, we isolated and characterized six novel GRO and GRO-related cDNA sequences from the cow (Bos taurus), the sheep (Ovis aries),...
