About CXCL6

Cytogenetic location: 4q13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 4:73,836,678-73,838,760 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 75 orthologues and 12 paralogues. Biased expression in spleen (RPKM 44.2), gall bladder (RPKM 20.7) and 4 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a member CXC chemokine family. The encoded protein is a chemotactic for neutrophil granulocytes and has Antibacterial action against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. This gene and other members of the CXC chemokine gene family form a gene cluster in a region of chromosome 4q. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2020]
