Summary This gene is one of several chemokine genes clustered on the q-arm of chromosome 17. Chemokines form a superfamily of secreted proteins involved in immunoregulatory and inflammatory processes. The superfamily is divided into four subfamilies based on the
Gene ontology (GO) Gene Ontology (GO) annotations describing the biological processes, molecular functions, and cellular components associated with a gene.

Protein name C-C motif chemokine 23 (CK-beta-8) (CKB-8) (Macrophage inflammatory protein 3) (MIP-3) (Myeloid progenitor inhibitory factor 1) (MPIF-1) (Small-inducible cytokine A23) [Cleaved into: CCL23(19-99); CCL23(22-99); CCL23(27-99); CCL23(30-99)]
Protein function Shows chemotactic activity for monocytes, resting T-lymphocytes, and neutrophils, but not for activated lymphocytes. Inhibits proliferation of myeloid progenitor cells in colony formation assays. This protein can bind heparin. Binds CCR1. CCL23(
