MIF (or macrophage migration inhibitory factor) was the first lymphokine/cytokine to be recognized in the pregenomics era. Regardless, it is one of the least understood of all inflammatory mediators. Secretion occurs nonclassically via an ABCA1 transporter. The molecule consists of two alpha -helices and six beta -strands, four of which form a beta -sheet. The two remaining beta -strands interact with other MIF molecules, creating a trimer. Structure-function studies suggest MIF is bifunctional with segregated topology. The N- and C-termini mediate enzyme activity (in theory). Phenylpyruvate tautomerase activity (enol-to-keto) has been demonstrated and is dependent upon Pro at position #1. Amino acids 50 - 65 have also been suggested to contain thiol-protein oxidoreductase activity.
