The existence of an antifreeze-like substance in northern polar fish has been confirmed more recently by Scholander and Maggert (15), Hargens (16), and Raymond et al. (17), who found it in the saffron cod, Eleginus gracilis. An antifreeze substance also has been reported in the winter flounder (Pseudopleuronectes americanus) (18,19,20). Our laboratory recently has found antifreeze glycoproteins in the polar cod (Boreogadus saida) from the Barents Sea north of Russia (10). 

Styelins, beside clavanins, a-helical antimicrobial 32-peptides from the tunicate Styda clava. The styelins A-E show considerable sequence homology to pleuro-cidins, antimicrobial peptides of the flounder Pseudopleuronectes americanus. Styelin D contains 12 post-translationally modified residues which enhance its bactericidal activity at acidic pH and high salinity [I. H. Lee et al. Comp. Biochem. Physiol. B Biochem. Mol.
