Raghium inquisitor Anti Freeze Protein (RiAFP) is a 137 AA protein that prevents the growth of ice crystals. This protein is produced natively in the beetle Raghium inquisitor. (Kristiansen E, 2011)

This part was codon optimized for its expression in E.coli.

The RiAFP has no reported toxicity or hazardousness, but it’s important to remember to have the basic biosafety precautions using a biosecurity chamber when handling any transformed strains.
