背景
This gene encodes a lymphokine involved in cell-mediated immunity, immunoregulation, and inflammation. It plays a role in the regulation of macrophage function in host defense through the suppression of anti-inflammatory effects of glucocorticoids. This lymphokine and the JAB1 protein form a complex in the cytosol near the peripheral plasma membrane, which may indicate an additional role in integrin signaling pathways.

功能
catalytic activity:Keto-phenylpyruvate = enol-phenylpyruvate.,disease:Genetic variations in MIF are associated with susceptibility to systemic juvenile rheumatoid arthritis [MIM:604302]. Systemic juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is juvenile chronic arthritis associated with severe, debilitating, extraarticular features, and occasionally fatal complications. Despite medical treatment, many children still experience early joint destruction, necessitating surgical replacement.,function:The expression of MIF at sites of inflammation suggest a role for the mediator in regulating the function of macrophage in host defense. Also acts as a phenylpyruvate tautomerase.,similarity:Belongs to the MIF family.,subunit:Homotrimer. Interacts with COPS5 and BNIPL.,
