Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/105734
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is a crustacean-derived protein having an antifreeze activity. The protein has a molecular weight of about 37,000, about 16,000 and/or about 15,400 as determined by sodium docecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis method under reduced conditions and has an N-terminal amino acid residues depicted in SEQ ID NO:1 or 2.
