Description

Description: CXCR4 (fusin) is one of the members in the seven-transmembrane G-protein-coupled chemokine receptor family. The full-length cDNA was isolated from a human spleen cDNA library (ref 1). Its ligand is chemokine stroma-derived factor (SDF). CXCR4 has been proved to be the co-receptor forHIV-2's binding to CD4 through envelope glycoprotein gp 120 (ref 2). In other cases, CXCR4 can even function as the only receptor for HIV-2's binding to the CD4 host cells (ref 3). Mouse monoclonal antibody (12G5) to CXCR4 has been shown to inhibit HIV infectivity and HIV-induced syncytium.
