Abstract

Antifreeze peptide from Myoxocephalus octodecemspinosus was overexpressed and purified in Escherichia coli. Green fluorescence protein-AFP chimera was constructed by integrating gfp and afp genes. Produced GFP-AFP chimera protein was purified using polyhistidine tag which was inserted at C-terminus. By addition of GFP-AFP chimera protein, freezing point of elution buffer was decreased from -13℃ to -20℃. This result suggested that GFP-AFP chimera can be considered as a potential candidate of novel inhibitor for gas hydrates.
