<p>A family of related intracellular skin type antifreeze polypeptides and corresponding coding nucleic acids are provided. These are the first skin type intracellular antifreeze polypeptides and coding nucleic acids ever reported. The polypeptides are naturally expressed in the skin of Winter Flounder, and skin specific promoters are also provided. The polypeptides are used to make cells cold-resistant, and to improve the palatability of cold foods and liquids. Cold resistant eukaryotes and prokaryotes, including plants, animals and bacteria are made using the skin-type intracellular antifreeze polypeptides and nucleic acids.</p> |
