This project investigates the molecular mechanisms of ice-nucleating proteins from ice-active bacteria, focusing on their role in ice formation. Using advanced spectroscopy techniques, the research aims to understand protein structure and energy transfer, with potential applications in agriculture and climate modeling.
Water freezing and ice formation are fundamental processes for life on Earth.
Ice active bacteria are the most efficient ice nucleators known.
These specialized bacteria catalyse liquid-solid phase transitions of water at high subzero temperatures using ice-nucleating proteins (INPs).
Despite the critical and well-recognized importance of ice bacteria on local and global precipitation, frost damage in agriculture and their potential for biomimetic freezing applications, the molecular mechanisms…
