| CHARACTERIZATION | The antifreeze protein of Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus harengus) is homologous to the C-type lectins. Like these lectins, antifreeze proteins recognize non-self but their particular targets are ice crystals instead of pathogens and their role is to stop ice crystal growth. |
