trimer the tertiary structure is stabilized by hydrogen bonds and a hydrophobic core, three beta-sheets and six alpha-helices surround a traversing channel with dominant positive charge in the middle of the trimer, structure, overview. The enzyme contains a Cys-Xaa-Xaa-Cys motif required for oxido-reductase activity and MIF-like activities like glucorticoid overriding and cell proliferation Homo sapiens

Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Homo sapiens MIF expression is upregulated by cytokines, TNF-alpha and interleukin-I, and by bacterial endotoxins, such as lipopolysaccharides, and exotoxins up

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction MIF expression contributes to cell proliferation, invasiveness and neo-angiogenesis of neuroblastoma, gastric, hepatocellular, bladder, and breast carcinomas. MIF takes part in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease and multiple sklerosis Homo sapiens
physiological function MIF plays an essential role in both, innate and adaptive immune response. It is implicated in tumor growth and angiogenesis, an exerts an antagonistic effect against glucocorticoid immunosuppressive action, and shows glucorticoid overriding activity Homo sapiens
