Observation of ice-like water layers at an aqueous protein surface
Open accessAbstract
Significance: Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) enable the survival of various organisms in freezing or subfreezing habitats by preventing the macroscopic growth of ice crystals. Understanding how AFPs recognize and bind ice crystals is the most important step to unravel their working mechanism. Using surface-specific sum frequency generation spectroscopy, we were able to directly probe the ice-binding site of the protein and discovered that, already at room temperature and in an aqueous solution, the antifreeze proteins arrange water molecules into an ice-like array, which they then use to bind to ice crystals.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
