背景
The protein encoded by this gene is a glycosylated membrane protein and a non-specific receptor for several chemokines. The encoded protein is the receptor for the human malarial parasites Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium knowlesi. Polymorphisms in this gene are the basis of the Duffy blood group system. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
功能
disease:Individuals that do not produce the Duffy antigen (FY(A-B-)) are more resistant to vivax malaria. This allele is found predominantly in population of African origin.,function:Non-specific receptor for many chemokines such as IL-8, GRO, RANTES, MCP-1 and TARC. It is also the receptor for the human malaria parasites Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium knowlesi.,online information:Blood group antigen gene mutation database,online information:Duffy antigen entry,polymorphism:DARC is responsible for the Duffy blood group system. The molecular basis of the Fy(A)=Fy1/Fy(B)=Fy2 blood group antigens is a single variation in position 42; Gly-42 corresponds to Fy(A) and Asp-42 to Fy(B).,polymorphism:Genetic variation in DARC is associated with white blood cell count quantitative trait locus type 1 (WBCQ1) [MIM:611862]. Peripheral white blood cell count (WBC) is a common clinical measurement, us
