Two antifreeze proteins with thermal hysteresis activity (they depress the freezing point of aqueous solutions by a noncolligative mechanism well below the melting point) were purified from cold‐acclimated larvae of the beetle, Tenebrio molitor . Both proteins have unusual amino acid compositions consisting of high levels of cysteine (15.4 and 28.0 mol%).
