Biological function summary
CCR2 plays an important role in mediating leukocyte migration. It acts in the immune system to guide monocytes from the bloodstream into tissues contributing to immune surveillance and response. CCR2 operates not as part of a larger receptor complex but it does interact closely with other chemokine receptors which may influence its signaling. The receptor's activity has critical implications for inflammatory processes and lies at the heart of many immune responses.
Pathways
CCR2 is integrally involved in the chemokine signaling pathway and the inflammatory response pathway. Its function in these pathways highlights its role in modulating immune cell infiltration during immune challenges. The receptor also interfaces with other important signaling proteins such as CCR5 which like CCR2 is another chemokine receptor involved in mediating immune cell movement. These interactions overlap and complement each other offering nuanced regulation of immune cell dynamics.

General info
Function
Key functional receptor for CCL2 but can also bind CCL7, and CCL12 (PubMed : 23408426, PubMed : 38157855, PubMed : 8048929, PubMed : 8146186). Also transduces signaling mediated by CCL13 (PubMed : 38157855). Its binding with CCL2 on monocytes and macrophages mediates chemotaxis and migration induction through the activation of the PI3K cascade, the small G protein Rac and lamellipodium protrusion (PubMed : 38157855). Also acts as a receptor for the beta-defensin DEFB106A/DEFB106B (PubMed : 23938203). Regulates the expression of T-cell inflammatory cytokines and T-cell differentiation, promoting the differentiation of T-cells into T-helper 17 cells (Th17) during inflammation (By similarity). Facilitates the export of mature thymocytes by enhancing directional movement of thymocytes to sphingosine-1-phosphate stimulation and up-regulation of S1P1R expression; signals through the JAK-STAT pathway to regulate FOXO1 activity leading to an increased expression of S1P1R (By similarity). Plays an important role in mediating peripheral nerve injury-induced neuropathic pain (By similarity). Increases NMDA-mediated synaptic transmission in both dopamine D1 and D2 receptor-containing neurons, which may be caused by MAPK/ERK-dependent phosphorylation of GRIN2B/NMDAR2B (By similarity). Mediates the recruitment of macrophages and monocytes to the injury site following brain injury (By similarity).. (Microbial infection) Alternative coreceptor with CD4 for HIV-1 infection.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
Post-translational modifications
N-glycosylated.. Sulfation increases the affinity for both monomeric and dimeric CCL2 with stronger binding to the monomeric form (PubMed:11046064, PubMed:23408426). Binding of sulfated CCR2 to CCL2 promotes conversion of CCL2 from dimer to monomer (PubMed:11046064, PubMed:23408426).
