Ice Binding Proteins

<p>This volume provides methods to study ice-binding proteins (IBPs) and applications involving these proteins. Chapters are divided into three parts describing identifying isolating and purifying ice-binding proteins characterize both IBPs and ice-nucleating proteins (INPs) and synthesize mimics of IBPs as well as applications involving these proteins. Written in the format of the highly successful <i>Methods in Molecular Biology </i>series each chapter includes an introduction to the topic lists necessary materials and reagents includes tips on troubleshooting and known pitfalls and step-by-step readily reproducible protocols.   </p><p>Authoritative and cutting-edge <i>Ice Binding Proteins: Methods and Protocols </i>aims to provide both experimental and simulations protocols to help new researchers break-the-ice and enter this exciting field while also supporting established researchers broaden the scope of theirinvestigations. </p>
