About Cxcr2

Primary_assembly 9: 75,729,115-75,739,425 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026982.1

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 244 orthologues, 24 paralogues and is associated with 45 phenotypes. Biased expression in Spleen (RPKM 23.5), Lung (RPKM 14.1) and 4 other tissues.

Summary

Predicted to enable chemokine binding activity and Chemokine Receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including neutrophil chemotaxis; positive regulation of neutrophil chemotaxis; and regulation of apoptotic process. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cell surface; mast cell granule; and mitotic spindle. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane. Used to study colitis; demyelinating disease; and nephritis. Biomarker of periapical periodontitis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in IgA glomerulonephritis; acute pyelonephritis; end stage renal disease; and urinary bladder Cancer. Orthologous to human CXCR2 (C-X-C motif Chemokine Receptor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
