Evolution of the diverse antifreeze proteins.

Current opinion in genetics & development - 1 Dec 1998

Cheng C H

Abstract excerpt

Different types of ice-growth-inhibiting antifreeze proteins, first recognized in fish, have now been isolated from insects and plants, and the list continues to expand. Their structures are amazingly diverse; how they attain the same function are subjects of intense research. Evolutionary precursors of several members have been identified - divergent proteins of apparently unrelated function. The hybridization...
