Gene: [22q112/MIF] macrophage migration inhibitory factor; glycosylation-inhibiting factor; phenylpyruvate tautomerase;
FUN |
A macrophage migration inhibitory factor, originally described as a product of activated lymphocytes, was identified as a phenylpyruvate tautomerase (Resengren-1997, Suzuki-1997). It has the potential to catalyze D-dopachrome to 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid and is an important cytokine for T-lymphocyte activation." |
