'''Human synthetic monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP)''' belongs to the superfamily of chemokines, which are proteins involved in immunoregulatory and inflammatory processes. The gene for CCL2 is on chromosome 17 in region 17q11.2-q12. The superfamily can be subdivided into 4 smaller groups, depending on the N-ter arangment of the cysteines.  The CCL2<ref>PMID:8170963</ref> is also known as '''chemokine (C-C motif) ligand''' or:
