The Duffy antigen receptor for chemokines (DARC) is expressed in human erythrocytes and
on endothelial cells lining postcapillary venules in kidney and spleen. DARC is a …

The Duffy antigen/receptor for chemokines (DARC), first identified on erythrocytes, functions
not only as a promiscuous chemokine receptor but also as a receptor for the malarial …

The Duffy antigen (DARC) is a promiscuous chemokine receptor that also binds
Plasmodium vivax. DARC belongs to a family of heptahelical chemokine receptors that …

The Duffy blood group antigen has been postulated to be a receptor on red blood cells
(RBCs) for the malarial parasite Plasmodium vivax and a promiscuous receptor for the …

A major advance towards understanding the Duffy blood group system has been achieved
with the cloning of FY, a single-copy gene located in the 1q22→ q23 region of chromosome …

Duffy antigen/receptor for chemokines (DARC) is a promiscuous receptor for chemokines
that is required for Plasmodium vivax infection of erythroid cells. This receptor is expressed …

In addition to classical G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), a group of alternative,“silent”
chemokine receptors has recently been identified. These serpentine molecules are not …

The Duffy antigen/receptor for chemokines (DARC), a seven‐transmembrane glycoprotein
carrying the Duffy (Fy) blood group, acts as a widely expressed promiscuous chemokine …

All of the antigenic determinants of the Duffy blood group system are in a glycoprotein (gp-
Fy), which is encoded by a single-copy gene (FY) located on chromosome 1. gp-Fy is also …

It has been demonstrated that the promiscuous chemokine binding profile of the
Duffyantigen/receptor for chemokines (DARC) is given by its extracellular NH 2-terminal …
