Effect of Marine-Derived Ice-Binding Proteins on the Cryopreservation of Marine Microalgae

Ice-binding protein (IBPs) protect cells from cryo-injury during cryopreservation by inhibiting ice recrystallization (IR), which is a main cause of cell death. In the present study, we employed two IBPs, one, designated LeIBP from Arctic yeast, and the other, designated FfIBP from Antarctic sea ice...
