Mutants of specific CC-chemokines containing a non-conservative substitution in a conserved consensus sequence act as CC-chemokine antagonists, and can be effectively used in the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, cancers, and viral or bacterial infections. Particularly preferred are the RANTES/CCL5 mutants having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, or 4.
