Proper repair of DNA damage is critical for protecting genomic stability, cellular viability and suppression of tumorigenesis. Both p53-dependent and p53-independent pathways have evolved to coordinate the cellular response following DNA damage. In this review, we highlight the importance of the ubiquitously expressed protein macro phage migration inhibitory factor ( MIF) for an appropriate response to DNA damage. We discuss the mechanisms by which MIF affects the activity of the ubiquitin-proteasome system, and how this impacts on the integrity of the genome and on cancer.
