Background

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.

GTX48478 WB Image

Western blot analysis of GeneTex's IgY fraction of Chicken-anti-Human MIF polyclonal antibody shows the detection of 100 μg of recombinant MIF present in a lysate. Similar detection of MIF will occur when human serum is analyzed. In lane 1 no reaction is observed in the control whereas lane 2 shows a single band at 12.3 kDa. A 4-20% gradient gel was used to separate the proteins by SDS-PAGE. The protein was transferred to nitro-cellulose using standard methods. After blocking the membrane was probed with the primary antibody for 1 h at room temperature followed by washes and reaction with a 1:5,000 dilution of IRDye800 conjugated Gt-a-Chicken Rabbit IgG [H&L] for 1 h at room temperature. LICOR's OdysseyR Infrared Imaging System was used to scan and process the image. Other detection systems will yield similar results.
