Cloning of Fish Enzymes and Other Fish Protein Genes

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 1999
Fish metabolism needs special enzymes that have maximum activity at very different conditions than their mammalian counterparts. Due to the differences in activity, these enzymes, especially cold-adapted proteases, could be used advantageously for the production of some foods.

Fluoride content of fish protein concentrate and raw fish

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 1970
AbstractThe fluoride content of fish protein concentrate prepared by the Halifax isopropanol process and also of several possible raw materials was determined by distillation without fusion. The concentration of fluoride in this dry material ranged from 20 to 760 ppm and was dependent upon the raw materials.

Denaturation of Fish Proteins

Nature, 1957
REPORTING on the influence of freezing-rate on the denaturation of cold-stored fish, Love1 states that organoleptically determined toughness of cod, stored at − 30° C., does not always involve decreased protein solubility.

Hyperactive antifreeze protein in a fish

Nature, 2004
Fish that live in the polar oceans survive at low temperatures by virtue of 'antifreeze' plasma proteins in the blood that bind to ice crystals and prevent these from growing. However, the antifreeze proteins isolated so far from the winter flounder (Pleuronectes americanus), a common fish in the Northern Hemisphere, are not sufficiently active to ...

Biochemistry of fish antifreeze proteins

The FASEB Journal, 1990
Four distinct macromolecular antifreezes have been isolated and characterized from different marine fish. These include the glycoprotein antifreezes ( M r 2.5‐33 K), which are made up of a repeating tripeptide (Ala‐Ala‐Thr) n with a ...

Measurement of Denaturation of Fish Protein

Nature, 1956
IT is well known that frozen fish alter in character during storage at sub-zero temperatures, becoming progressively tougher to eat, and exuding much fluid or ‘drip’ on thawing. The change proceeds more slowly the lower the temperature. There is a real need for an accurate objective method of measuring this deterioration, from the point of view of ...

Antifreeze Proteins of Teleost Fishes

Annual Review of Physiology, 2001
▪ Abstract  Marine teleosts at high latitudes can encounter ice-laden seawater that is approximately 1°C colder than the colligative freezing point of their body fluids. They avoid freezing by producing small antifreeze proteins (AFPs) that adsorb to ice and halt its growth, thereby producing an additional non-colligative lowering of the freezing point.

Ceruloplasmin, a moonlighting protein in fish

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2018
Ceruloplasmin is an ancient multicopper oxidase evolved to insure a safe handling of oxygen in some metabolic pathways of vertebrates. The current knowledge of its structure provides a glimpse of its plasticity, revealing a multitude of binding sites that point to an elaborate mechanism of multifunctional activity.

Protein changes in frozen fish

C R C Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 1976
Storage of frozen fish brings about a decrease of extractability of myofibrillar proteins. There is also deterioration of the texture and functional properties of the flesh. In model systems, aggregation of myosin, actin, tropomyosin, and whole myofibrils have been described.
