Expression of multi-domain type III antifreeze proteins from the Antarctic eelpout (Lycodichths dearborni) in transgenic tobacco plants improves cold resistance
Type III antifreeze proteins (AFPIIIs) are a group of small globular proteins found in some polar fishes to protect them against freezing damage. Transgenic expression of AFPs has been shown to confer cold tolerance to commercially important plants and animals. We have previously isolated multiple A...
