Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor Human Recombinant, His Tag C-Terminus

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, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was cloned into an E. coli expression vector and was purified to apparent homogeneity by using conventional column chromatography techniques.
Macrophage Inducing Factor Human Recombinant is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chaincontaining 123 amino acidsand having a molecular mass of 13.5 kDa.
Synonyms Phenylpyruvate tautomerase, Glycosylation-inhibiting factor, GIF, MMIF, MIF.

Purity >96% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC
Formulation Sterile Filtered lyophilized powder.
Human MIF was lyophilized from a 1mg/ml solution containing PBS pH-7.4.
Stability The lyophilized form of the protein is stable at room temperature for 3 weeks and at -20°C for at least 2 years from the date of receipt. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4°C for no more than 7 days. The protein is stable at -20°C for six months. For long term storage, please store at -80°C and the addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended. Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Biological Activity Measured by its ability to bind rhCD74 in a functional ELISA.
Solubility It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized MIF in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Usage LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. Not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
