Biochemically, Gc-MAF is produced by sequential deglycosylation of the vitamin D-binding protein (the Gc protein), thereby generating a potent macrophage activating factor (MAF).
Biochemically, Gc-MAF results from sequential deglycosylation of the vitamin D-binding protein (the Gc protein), which is naturally promoted by lymphocytes (B and T cells). The resulting protein is a potent macrophage activating factor (MAF).
