Macrophage inhibitory factor
Macrophage inhibitory factor (MIF) is an inflammatory cytokine. MIF is released to the blood stream upon stimulation of white blood cells by bacterial antigens. MIF contains two different catalytic sites. A phenylpyruvate tautomerase site is located in the N terminal. A disulfide reductase site is located in the tetrapeptide Cys-Ala-Leu-Cys in position 57-60. |
