Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate
The beta sheet roll motif lines up the amino acid chain such that each turn interacts with a unit cell of the water ice crystal

Tenebrio molitor (Yellow mealworm beetle)

Contributes to protect body fluid from freezing at subzero temperatures. Lowers the freezing point of the hemolymph by about 2.5 degrees at a concentration of 1 mg/ml. Binds to nascent ice crystals and prevents further growth
