The antifreeze protein (AFP) activity is explained using two models. The first model is using ice binding and the second is using antiice structuralization of water molecules. The description of AFP function using anti-ice structuralization of water molecules is less explored. Therefore, it is of interest to explain AFP function using this model. Protein folding is often described using models where hydrophobic residues move away from water getting buried and hydrophilic residues are exposed to ...[more]
