UniProt ID Q7Z5A7
Protein name Chemokine-like protein TAFA-5
Protein function Acts as a chemokine-like protein by regulating cell proliferation and migration through activation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), such as S1PR2 and FPR2 (By similarity). Stimulates chemotactic migration of macrophages mediated by the MA
