Introduction
The cytokine Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) has been identified to be secreted by the pituitary gland and the monocyte/macrophage and to play an important role in endotoxic shock. MIF has the unique property of being released from macrophages and T cells in response to physiological concentrations of glucocorticoids. The secretion of MIF is tightly regulated and decreases at high, anti-inflammatory steroid concentration.
Description
MIF Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single,
non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 345 amino acids (1-115 a.a) and
having a molecular mass of 39.2kDa.
MIF is fused to a 230 amino
acid GST-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic
techniques.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered clear solution.
Formulation
MIF protein solution (1mg/ml) containing Phosphate
Buffered Saline (pH7.4) and 10% glycerol.
Stability
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
