Product Overview
Tag | N/A |
Host Species | Rat |
Synonym | Macrophage migration inhibitory factor, MIF, Glutathione-binding 13 kDa protein, L-dopachrome isomerase, L-dopachrome tautomerase, Phenylpyruvate tautomerase. |
Background | 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 Rat Recombinant expressed in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 115a.a. and having a molecular weight of 12.5kDa. The MIF is purified by unique purification methods. |
Source | E.coli |

Purity | >95.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
Endotoxin | <1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in 1xPBS, pH 7.4 and 5% trehalose. |
Stability | Recombinant protein is stable for 12 months at -70°C |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Storage | Lyophilized MIF although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution MIF should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
