Recombinant Human MIF Protein, hFc Tag

Molecular Characterization: MIF (Pro2-Ala115) hFc (Glu99-Ala330) Molecular weight: The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 38.5 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of MIF-hFc is approximately 35-55 kDa due to glycosylation.Description: Recombinant human MIF protein with C-terminal hFc tagThis gene encodes a lymphokine involved in cell-mediated immunity, immunoregulation, and inflammation. It plays a role in the regulation of macrophage function in host defense through the suppression of anti-inflammatory effects of glucocorticoids. This lymphokine and the JAB1 protein form a complex in the cytosol near the peripheral plasma membrane, which may indicate an additional role in integrin signaling pathways.
