Chemotactic in vitro for thymocytes and activated T-cells, but not for B-cells, macrophages, or neutrophils. Shows preferential activity towards naive T-cells. May play a role in mediating homing of lymphocytes to secondary lymphoid organs. Binds to atypical chemokine receptor ACKR4 and mediates the recruitment of beta-arrestin (ARRB1/2) to ACKR4. | [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CCL21_HUMAN CCL21_HUMAN]] Inhibits hemopoiesis and stimulates chemotaxis.

| + | CCL21 is a human chemokine that recruits normal immune cells and metastasizing tumor cells to lymph nodes through activation of the G protein-coupled receptor CCR7. The CCL21 structure solved by NMR contains a conserved chemokine domain followed by an extended, unstructured C-terminus that is not typical of most other chemokines. A sedimentation equilibrium study showed CCL21 to be monomeric. Chemical shift mapping indicates that the CCR7 N-terminus binds to the N-loop and third beta-strand of CCL21's chemokine domain. Details of CCL21-receptor recognition may enable structure-based drug discovery of novel antimetastatic agents. | ||
