== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/LIF_HUMAN LIF_HUMAN] LIF has the capacity to induce terminal differentiation in leukemic cells. Its activities include the induction of hematopoietic differentiation in normal and myeloid leukemia cells, the induction of neuronal cell differentiation, and the stimulation of acute-phase protein synthesis in hepatocytes.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Gp130 is a shared cell-surface signaling receptor for at least ten different hematopoietic cytokines, but the basis of its degenerate recognition properties is unknown. We have determined the crystal structure of human leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) bound to the cytokine binding region (CHR) of gp130 at 2.5 A resolution. Strikingly, we find that the shared binding site on gp130 has an entirely rigid core, while the LIF binding interface diverges sharply in structure and chemistry from that of other gp130 ligands. Dissection of the LIF-gp130 interface, along with comparative studies of other gp130 cytokines, reveal that gp130 has evolved a "thermodynamic plasticity" that is relatively insensitive to ligand structure, to enable crossreactivity. These observations reveal a novel and alternative mechanism for degenerate recognition from that of structural plasticity.

Convergent mechanisms for recognition of divergent cytokines by the shared signaling receptor gp130.,Boulanger MJ, Bankovich AJ, Kortemme T, Baker D, Garcia KC Mol Cell. 2003 Sep;12(3):577-89. PMID:14527405<ref>PMID:14527405</ref>
