CMI Video | Antifreeze proteins prevent fish from freezing #science #biology #fish #cmi @CMIVideo | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 1 day ago
Are antifreeze proteins an example of evolution in action? No. Antifreeze proteins are quite different from the complex, specific proteins found elsewhere in the fish, or in our own bodies. They are simple proteins, which may have arisen through the duplication of a digestive enzyme gene that lost its original function due to mutations scrambling it.
