Target Details for MIF

Target: MIF (Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (Glycosylation-Inhibiting Factor) (MIF))

Alternative Name: MIF

Background:

Description: 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.

Gene: MIF

Molecular Weight: 12kDa

Gene ID: 4282

UniProt: P14174

Pathways: Regulation of Systemic Arterial Blood Pressure by Hormones, Positive Regulation of Immune Effector Process, Production of Molecular Mediator of Immune Response, Regulation of Carbohydrate Metabolic Process, Feeding Behaviour, Smooth Muscle Cell Migration, Negative Regulation of intrinsic apoptotic Signaling
