METHOD OF PREVENTING DECREASE IN THE ACTIVITY OF PROTEIN DUE TO FREEZING AND USE OF POLYPEPTIDE IN THE PRODUCTION OF PROTEIN ACTIVITY DECREASE PREVENTING AGENT

摘要

It is intended to provide a means of preventing a decrease in the activity of a protein due to freezing. Namely, a method of preventing a decrease in the activity of a protein due to freezing which comprises adding a polypeptide having the following amino acid sequence (I) to the aimed protein to be frozen; and use of a polypeptide having the following amino acid sequence (I) in producing an activity decrease preventing agent for preventing a decrease in the activity of a protein due to freezing: (I) (SEQ ID NO:1) Ser-Ser-Thr-Gly-Ser-X1-Ser-X2-Thr-Asp-X3-X4-X5-X6-X7-X8-Gly-Ser-X9-Thr-Ser-Gly-Gly-Ser-Ser-Thr-Tyr-Gly-Tyr-Ser-Ser-X10-X11-X12-X13-Gly-X14-Val
