Antifreeze Polypeptide (AFP) (HPLC-6), Winter Flounder

Research use only, not for human use.

Antifreeze Polypeptide 6 (winter flounder) is the component 6 of the winter flounder's antifreeze polypeptides. Antifreeze Polypeptide 6 (winter flounder) lowers the plasma freezing point by arresting the growth of ice nuclei.

Antifreeze Polypeptide 6 (winter flounder) is the component 6 of the winter flounder's antifreeze polypeptides. Antifreeze Polypeptide 6 (winter flounder) lowers the plasma freezing point by arresting the growth of ice nuclei.

Antifreeze Polypeptide 6 (winter flounder) inhibits the growth of ice crystals by hydrogen bonding of Thr, Asn, and Asp side chains in a specific pattern to the hexagonal bipyramidal planes of ice. This mode of binding is unidirectional, maximizing opportunities for packing of AFPs on the ice surface, and that ice crystal growth inhibition occurs by a two-step mechanism involving hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interpeptide interactions.
