CXC motif chemokine 3 is a protein belonging to the chemokine group . As a chemokine, it is a surface protein and is involved in the immune response . The chemokine serves as a cellular warning signal. Immune cells with a suitable chemokine receptor bind to the chemokine , as a result of which immune cells accumulate at the site of inflammation and the immune response is strengthened locally. As a CXC chemokine, it has four cysteines , the first two of which have any amino acid X in between, followed by 24 amino acids up to the third cysteine and 15 amino acids between the third and fourth cysteines.
