General Information of HIF (ID: HIFM0029)
HIF Name
C-C motif chemokine 27
HIF Synonym(s)
Ccl27, cutaneous T-cell-attracting chemokine, CTACK
HIF Classification
Antimicrobial peptide (AMP)
Molecular Function
Cytokine
Description CCL27 has been identified in humans. It forms the first line of host defense against pathogenic infections and are a key component of the ancient innate immune system. [1]
Pfam Small cytokines (intecrine/chemokine), interleukin-8 like (PF00048 )
Pathway Chemokine signaling pathway (hsa04062 )
Cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction (hsa04060 )
Viral protein interaction with cytokine and cytokine receptor (hsa04061 )

Microbe Species (MIC) Regulated by This HIF
         Candida glabrata (budding yeasts) MIC01794
             Description Candida antigens can express CCR10, which is the receptor for CCL27. [2]
         Haemophilus ducreyi (gamma-proteobacteria) MIC00650
             Description CCL27 staining was uniformly positive throughout infected and uninfected sections and appeared unchanged in response to Haemophilus ducreyi infection in the skin. [2]
