Previously, we mapped the novel CC chemokine myeloid progenitor inhibitory factor 2 (MPIF-
2)/eotaxin-2 to chromosome 7q11. 23 (Nomiyama, H., Osborne, LR, Imai, T., Kusuda, J.,
Miura, R., Tsui, L.-C., and Yoshie, O.(1998) Genomics 49, 339–340). Since chemokine
genes tend to be clustered, unknown chemokines may be present in the vicinity of those
mapped to new chromosomal loci. Prompted by this hypothesis, we analyzed the genomic
region containing the gene for MPIF-2/eotaxin-2 (SCYA24) and have identified a novel CC …
