Description |
The Recombinant Human MIF protein is a protein encoded by recombinant DNA that was cloned in an expression vector that supported the expression of MIF gene. This recombinant MIF protein was expressed in the host. The expression region is 2-115aa of the Human MIF. In the production, the expression vector contains N-terminal 6xHis tag. Every production step was performed with a strict QC system. The purity of this protein is 90%+ determined by SDS-PAGE. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a cytokine expressed in various cell types, including hematopoietic, epithelial, endothelial, mesenchymal, and neuronal cells. Altered MIF expression has been associated with a multitude of diseases ranging from inflammatory disorders like sepsis, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis to organ pathologies such as heart failure, myocardial infarction, acute kidney injury, organ fibrosis and several malignancies. The implication of MIF in these diseases was supported by numerous animal studies. MIF acts in an autocrine and paracrine manner via binding and activating the receptors CD74/CD44, CXCR2, CXCR4 and CXCR7. Upon receptor binding, several downstream signaling pathways were shown to be activated in vivo, including ERK1/2, AMPK and AKT. Expression of MIF receptors is not uniform in various cells, resulting in differential responses to MIF across various tissues and pathologies. |

Form |
Liquid or Lyophilized powder Note: We will preferentially ship the format that we have in stock, however, if you have any special requirement for the format, please remark your requirement when placing the order, we will prepare according to your demand. |
Buffer | If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol.
Note: If you have any special requirement for the glycerol content, please remark when you place the order. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0. |
Reconstitution | We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference. |

Storage Condition | Store at -20°C/-80°C upon receipt, aliquoting is necessary for mutiple use. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
Shelf Life | The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature
and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20°C/-80°C. |
Lead Time | 3-7 business days |
Notes | Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week. |

Function |
Pro-inflammatory cytokine. Involved in the innate immune response to bacterial pathogens. The expression of MIF at sites of inflammation suggests a role as mediator in regulating the function of macrophages in host defense. Counteracts the anti-inflammatory activity of glucocorticoids. Has phenylpyruvate tautomerase and dopachrome tautomerase activity (in vitro), but the physiological substrate is not known. It is not clear whether the tautomerase activity has any physiological relevance, and whether it is important for cytokine activity.
