Comment typeDescription
FunctionInvolved in neutrophil activation. In vitro, ENA-78(8- 78) and ENA-78(9-78) show a threefold higher chemotactic activity for neutrophil granulocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10095777}.
PtmN-terminal processed forms ENA-78(8-78) and ENA-78(9-78) are produced by proteolytic cleavage after secretion from peripheral blood monocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10095777}.
SimilarityBelongs to the intercrine alpha (chemokine CxC) family. {ECO:0000305}.
